Description

Lactodex Starter Formula Stage 1 Powder is an infant nutrition formula developed to support the nutritional needs of newborns and young infants during the first six months of life. The formulation contains balanced proteins, carbohydrates, and fats that help support healthy physical growth and energy requirements. Essential nutrients like calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D help support strong bones and teeth development, while vitamins A, C, E, zinc, and selenium contribute to immune support. Taurine, choline, and essential fatty acid precursors help support cognitive and visual development during early infancy. Its spray-dried powder formulation dissolves easily in lukewarm water for smooth and convenient feeding preparation.

FAQs

Lactodex Starter Formula Stage 1 Powder for Up to 6 Months, 450 gm Tin is a specially formulated infant milk substitute designed to provide complete, balanced nutrition for newborns from birth to 6 months of age, primarily used when breastfeeding is either not possible or insufficient.

Yes, it is entirely safe and formulated to meet strict paediatric and FSSAI guidelines for infants aged 0-6 months. However, as with any formula, it should be introduced only after consulting your paediatrician, as breast milk is the gold standard for newborn nutrition.

The dosage varies based on your baby's age and weight. Generally, 1 level scoop is mixed with 30ml of lukewarm boiled water. Always refer to the specific feeding chart printed on the tin or follow your paediatrician's exact prescription.

Lactodex is formulated with easily digestible proteins to be gentle on the stomach. However, formula-fed babies can sometimes experience firmer stools. If you notice signs of severe constipation, consult your doctor and ensure you are not over-concentrating the formula (using too much powder per ounce of water).

Prepared infant formula must be fed immediately. If your baby does not finish the bottle within 30 minutes, the remaining milk should be discarded to prevent harmful bacterial contamination. Do not refrigerate prepared formula for later use.

Stage 1 is tailored for newborns (0-6 months) with specific protein and micronutrient levels suited for early digestion. Stage 2 is a follow-up formula for babies older than 6 months, containing higher levels of calcium, iron, and protein to support the weaning phase and increased physical activity.

Store the tin in a cool, dry, and hygienic place. Ensure the lid is closed tightly after every use to prevent moisture from entering. Do not refrigerate the tin. Once opened, use the contents within 3 weeks.

No, Lactodex Stage 1 does not contain added refined sucrose. The primary sources of carbohydrates are maltodextrin and the natural sugars found in milk solids, which are safe and necessary for an infant's energy requirements.

It is generally recommended to feed breast milk and formula in separate bottles rather than mixing them together. If your baby doesn't finish the mixed bottle, you would waste valuable breast milk. Consult your lactation consultant for mixed-feeding strategies.

No. Microwaving water can create dangerous "hot spots" that can burn your baby's mouth, even if the bottle feels cool on the outside. Always boil water in a pan or kettle, then let it cool to a safe, lukewarm temperature.
