Description

Aptamil Feed Thickener is a tasteless and odourless thickening agent which may be mixed with breast milk or infant formula to assist in the management of problematic regurgitation. Aptamil Feed Thickener maintains thickness of feed through the stomach due to the presence of carob bean gum which resists digestion in the mouth. This helps reduce regurgitation frequency in infants.

Aptamil Feed Thickener instantly thickens:

Breast milk.
Infant formula.

Direction of Use

Preparing thickened bottle feeds:

Use expressed breast milk, or prepare formula as directed. Add to the bottle, 1 scoop (4g) per 100ml of breast milk or formula. Shake vigorously. A fast flow or variable flow teat is recommended unless otherwise advised. Thickened feeds will continue to thicken after preparation. Follow instructions as recommended. Do not change proportions of powder except on medical advice. FAILURE to follow directions can be harmful for your baby.

For breastfed infant:

Aptamil Feed Thickener can be mixed with a small amount of cool boiled water or expressed breast milk and fed as a gel before, during or directly after the breastfeed. Alternatively, it can be mixed with expressed breast milk to thicken the feed

If a thickened infant formula is required, Aptamil Gold+ Reflux premium thickened infant formula (0–12 months) can be considered.
