Indications and Prescribability

Suggested Intake
The recommended intake or XMet Maxamaid will vary depending on the age, bodyweight and medical condition of the individual. Intake should be adjusted to maintain normal growth and development. For accuracy, XMet Maxamaid should be weighed on a gram scale. The daily intake of XMet Maxamaid should be divided into equal portions and distributed throughout the day.
