The quantity of feed and the dilution should be determined by a clinician or dietitian only, and is dependent on the age, bodyweight and medical condition of the patient.

A lower concentration may be required initially until tolerance is achieved. Preparation: THE HEALTH OF YOUR INFANT DEPENDS ON CAREFULLY FOLLOWING THE DIRECTIONS FOR PREPARATION AND USE.
