XMet Maxamaid - Preparation:

Maxamaid formulas must be consumed in conjunction with a whole protein source (e.g. breast milk or standard infant formula) in quantities prescribed by a dietitian or physician to meet complete protein requirements and ensure normal growth.

• Formula dosage will vary depending on the age, body weight, medical condition and protein tolerance of the infant.
• The daily intake of Maxamaid should be divided into equal portions and distributed throughout the day.
• Maxamaid is best served with meals. Make a paste of the prescribed amount of powder with a small volume of chilled water. Gradually add sufficient water to make the desired volume. It is recommended that Maxamaid be prepared at a 1 to 7 dilution (e.g. 35 g (approx 1/4 cup) of powder plus 245 mL (approx. 8 fl oz) of water) and advance to a 1 to 5 dilution (e.g. 35 g (approx 1/4 cup) of powder plus 175 mL (approx. 6 fl oz) of water). These dilutions are guidelines only. Maxamaid may be given in a more concentrated form (e.g. drink or paste). If so, water or diluted drinks should be offered at the same time. For best taste, consume immediately.
• Larger volumes of prepared drink mix should be refrigerated and used within 24 hours of preparation.

Store unopened can at room temperature. Do not store at extreme temperatures. Once opened, reseal can and store in a cool, dry place (not in refrigerator) and use within one month.

Precaution:Must only be consumed by individuals with proven homocystinuria (vitamin B6 non-responsive) and hypermethioninemia while under strict medical supervision. Not intended for children under one year of age. Not suitable as the sole source of nutrition. Not for parenteral use.
