The quantity of XMET XCYS 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.

This is provided in the form of breast milk or standard infant formula or later from suitable weaning foods. XMET XCYS Analog should be given in divided doses throughout the day
Each level scoop (5g) of XMET XCYS Analog requires 30ml (approx. 1 fl. oz) of water to yield the recommended feed concentration (15%).
