The dosage of Complete Amino Acid Mix is dependent on the age, bodyweight and medical condition of the patient and should be determined by the clinician or dietitian. Complete Amino Acid mix may be taken as a drink or paste. Suggested dilution 1 to 20 i.e. 5g of powder plus 100ml water. Mix the prescribed amount of the powder to a paste with cold water and make up to required volume. If taken as a paste, water or diluted drinks should be offered at the same time. Complete Amino Acid Mix may also be flavoured using a flavour from the Nutricia range. Flavouring is not recommended for infants less than six months old. Once reconstituted, the feed should be refrigerated and must not be kept longer than 24 hours from the time of preparation. Stir or shake immediately before serving. THE HEALTH OF THE INFANT DEPENDS ON CAREFULLY FOLLOWING THE DIRECTIONS FOR PREPARATION AND USE. INCORRECT PREPARATION CAN MAKE THE BABY ILL. When preparing any infant feed, please follow the guidelines below. 1. Wash hands thoroughly and clean the preparation area. Sterilise bottles and teats (if using). 2. Boil fresh water for five minutes and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes so that it feels warm to the wrist. Pour the required amount of water into a sterilised feeding bottle. 3. Fill the scoop with the infant formula and level off with a clean dry knife. Do not press the powder into the scoop. Only use the scoop provided. 4. Add the prescribed number of scoops of formula to the water. Replace cap on the bottle and shake until powder is dissolved. Before feeding ensure that the formula is at the correct temperature by placing a few drops on the wrist. 5. Formula remaining in the bottle after one hour of feeding should be discarded. Formula must not be rewarmed during feeding. Important Notice: Powdered infant formula is not sterile. Infant formula should be prepared immediately prior to feeding and any remaining should be discarded if not used within one hour.

By clicking the continue button you’ll be able to find out about infant milks and other products. Breastfeeding is best and provides many benefits. It is important that, in preparation for and during breastfeeding, mothers eat a healthy, balanced diet. Combined breast and bottle feeding in the first weeks of life may reduce the supply of breast milk, and reversing the decision not to breastfeed is difficult. The social and financial implications of using an infant milk should be considered. Improper use of an infant milk or inappropriate foods or feeding methods may present a health hazard. If an infant milk is used, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use carefully – failure to follow the instructions may make an infant ill. Follow-on milk should only be used as part of a mixed diet and not as a breastmilk substitute before 6 months.
Foods for special medical purposes should only be used under medical supervision.
