Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
You can start supplementing milk externally for your child, but it is essential to continue to breast feed him along with it.
Dexolac 1 has carbohydrates along with other essential vitamins and minerals.
Nan Pro 2 is a spray dried infant formula which contains a combined of problend, immunonutrients, essentials fatty acids and bifidogenic nutrients that help support immunity along with growth and development.
Since he is more than 6 months and Nan has little more advantage over Dexolac, you can start with it with small quantity initially and gradually increasing it.
If you have any other doubt related to these products, kindly consult Pediatrician for proper advise.
Hope the information provided helps.
Best Wishes,
