Mixing directions of Aptamil® Gold+ Feed Thickener
Preparing thickened bottle feeds: Use expressed breast milk, or prepare infant formula as directed. Add to the bottle, 1 Scoop (4g) per 100ml of breast milk or formula. Shake vigorously. A medium-fast flow teat is recommended unless otherwise advised.
Preparing a Gel: Aptamil® Feed Thickener can be mixed with a small amount of cooled boiled water or expressed breast milk and fed as a gel before, during or directly after the breast feed. Alternatively, it can be mixed with expressed breast milk to thicken the feed.
Note for all feed preparations:
