In all cases, it should only be used under medical supervision. It can be used safely and effectively to thicken infant feeds but should never be used as a sole source of nutrition.
Preparing thickened bottle feeds: Use expressed breast milk, or prepare infant formula as directed. Add to the bottle 2 scoops (8g) of Aptamil Feed Thickener for each 200mL of breast milk or formula. Shake vigorously. If baby continues to regurgitate, gradually increase to 3 or 4 scoops for each 200mL. A medium-fast flow teat is recommended unless otherwise advised.Preparing a gel: Sprinkle 1 scoop of Aptamil Feed Thickener into 20-30mL (approximately 1-2 tablespoons) of cooled, boiled water, expressed breast milk or infant formula. Whisk or mix vigorously to a thin paste. Increase up to 2 scoops if a thicker gel is needed. Feed the gel from a spoon, cup or plastic syringe, before, during or directly after the breast or bottle fed. Make into a paste to apply to the nipples.Preparing thickened foods: Add Aptamil Feed Thickener gradually to foods such as soups, sauces, purees and custards, until desired texture is achieved.Follow instructions as recommended.
