You can change to Nan 2 . But complementary foods are more important at this age as milk requirement reduces to just about  12 ounces a day.

More important than the change in formula, addition of complementary feeds/home food is needed. Also continue breastfeeding upto 2 years and beyond. In case you still want to give formula with complementary feeds, Lactogen stage 2 can be given.
