Can Lactogen Milk Formula Cause Any Harm?
My wife couldn't give breast milk to my baby due to plugged milk duct, we consulted with our Dr the Dr did some treatment and gave some medications and also did some milk duct blockage treatment like minor surgery and all but no luck, very often that thing came in to picture finally our Dr said stop breastfeeding and suggested to give Lactogen Milk formula. My baby is 3 months old now we started from 2nd months on wards, now my question is is there any harmful for this formula milk.
Please advice .

Hi Dear
Welcome to the HCM,
Breast milk is the best. There is no alternative equalent to breast milk.
There are innumerable advantages of the breast milk.
But if breast milk is not available then one has to go for some or other milk. Possibility of getting infection is quite common problem with bottled milk. Loose motions and vomiting are notorious side effects if the hygiene is compromised.
Hope the query is answered.
thanks
