Brief Answer: Try soya based isomil Detailed Answer: Hi Thanks for writing to healthcare magic. If your kid is intolerant to cows milk as well as zerolac , you can try isomil which is a soya based product. Also give plenty of rice based food. Wishing your kid the very best. Regards Dr Arun

Is this a type of alergy or what,she was already taking cow & buffalo milk for last 9 months,but now this has happen,our doctor suggest to take urine & blood test for HB,Also she has suggested bifilac & mintonia

Brief Answer: yes, it is. Detailed Answer: Yes it's milk allergy. Hb is to find out if she has anemia which can happen due to prolonged cow milk allergy. It can develop any time, not necessarily immediately after cows milk introduction. Continue bifilac and mintonia as advised. Dr Arun
