I am planning to switching to Dexolac 1 and the after 6 months Will be continue with Dexolac 2. I hope both (Lactogen and Dexolac) are equal nutritious and it would be fine if I switch? Please suggest. Thanks in advance.

Before deciding switching to alternative brands, pl do following: Give raw jeera powder (cumin seeds) to your wife 1/2 to 1 tsp three to four times a day by any method say in Roti, with honey or water etc and see if lactation increases. If you are satisfied, pl contact to get more effective herbal combo of asparagus and galactagogue herbs for inducing natural breast milk.
