Description

MSUD Analog is a leucine, isoleucine and valine free powdered infant formula, containing a balanced mixture of essential and non-essential amino acids, carbohydrate, fat, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. A food for special medical purposes.

Indications and Prescribability

MSUD Analog is for the dietary management of MSUD in infants from birth to one year.

Suggested Intake

The quantity of MSUD Analog and the dilution should be determined by a clinician or a dietitian only and is dependent on the age, bodyweight, and medical condition of the patient.
However, some natural protein must be supplied in addition to provide leucine, isoleucine and valine in controlled amounts, which is essential for normal growth. This is provided in the form of breast milk or standard infant formula or later from suitable weaning foods. MSUD Analog should be given in divided doses throughout the day and preferably given in conjunction with the natural protein source.

Preparation & Administration

Each level scoop (5g) of MSUD Analog requires 30ml (approx. 1 fl. oz) of water to yield the recommended feed concentration (15%).

1. Wash hands. Sterilise feeding bottle and teat.
2. Boil fresh water. Cool boiled water so that it feels warm to the wrist and pour desired amount into sterilised feeding bottle. Keep bottles capped until use.
3. Fill the scoop provided in the pack and level off by passing the back of a clean, dry knife across the rim. Do not press the powder down into the scoop. Use only the scoop provided.
4. Add the prescribed number of scoops of MSUD Analog to water.
5. 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. MSUD Analog is now ready for use.

When bottle feeding, prolonged or frequent contact of feeds with the infant’s teeth should be discouraged as this increases the risk of tooth decay. Cleaning the infant’s teeth after the last feed at night should be encouraged.

FLAVOURING IS NOT RECOMMENDED FOR INFANTS LESS THAN SIX MONTHS.

The osmolality of MSUD Analog at a 15% w/v concentration is 353 mosm/kg.
