In New Zealand, breast milk substitute formulas for infants over 6 months of age are called Follow-On Formulas. Follow-On Formulas contain more iron, calcium and protein than Infant Formulas.
Follow-On formulas are designed to meet the increasing nutrient needs of bottle-fed babies in the second six months. At this time babies own iron stores are diminishing, and their iron needs increasing.
Karicares Follow-On formula range includes:
Karicare Nutritional Care Follow-On Formula (From 6 months) – Cows milk-based and whey predominant, with boosted iron for babies over six months. Karicare Nutritional Care Follow-On Formula (From 6 months) frequently asked questions
