Question

Can formula milk be mixed with glucose to be given to a two-month-old baby? Is there anything wrong with that?

Answer

Formula milk can indeed be mixed with glucose for a baby to drink. In fact, formula milk usually contains sucrose, which will naturally convert into glucose once it enters the baby’s body. Guidance:

  1. If a newborn has hypoglycemia, they can drink some glucose to quickly correct the low blood sugar.
  2. Generally, it is not necessary to add glucose. Of course, drinking some is not harmful either. Wishing the baby good health!
