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:

• For use under medical supervision
• Only use scoop provided with the can
• Do not prepare gels or thickened feeds in advance as thickness will increase on standing or refrigeration

Discard unfinished feeds and gels immediately
