Hey beautiful doc.can i mix pediasure complete with toddler formula milk ? he is 18m n 9.6 weight.

I cannot advise that: However do consider that your toddler needs a balanced diet not diet based on milk and liquid diets. His weight is perfect for his age. This supplement is unnecessary. Unless he has another underlying disorder requiring supplemental diet, I will advise that you transition him to a regular diet; veges, friuts, meats etc. so you will start early to get him acquainted with a healthy lifestyle.
