(e.g 15g Neocate made up to 100ml with water) is 360 mosm/kg. 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. Incorrect preparation can make your baby ill. Always use clean dedicated kitchen utensils |
to avoid risk of protein contamination. |
Each level scoop (5 g) of NEOCATE requires 30 ml (approx 1 fl oz) of water to yield the recommended |
feed concentration (15%). |
1. Wash hands thoroughly and clean preparation area. Sterilise bottles and teats. |
2. Boil fresh water 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 provided with NEOCATE 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 NEOCATE to the water. Replace the cap on the bottle and |
shake until the powder dissolves. 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. Shake or stir formula immediately before use. Formula should not be warmed for |
longer than 15 minutes prior to feeding. Do not boil formula and do not use a microwave oven to prepare |
or warm formula. |
