A. Pediasure is aimed to provide a complete balanced nutrition for children 2 to 13 years of age. It is used as short term and long term nutrition support.Pediasure is usually not recommended for infants below 2 years of age. Before using it for children below this age it is suggested to talk to a healthcare professional.

A. No we don't need these. If you are giving fresh foods and fruits and vegetables then these health drinks are not necessary. Also it is recommended only after completion of 2 years. Try to balance the nutrional requirements of your baby by giving dairy products, chicken, fish eggs and all the seasonal fruits and vegetables
