Features

• Hypoallergenic; contains a predigested protein to virtually eliminate allergic reactions in most babies who are allergic to cow’s-milk protein

• Hydrolyzed casein supplemented with free amino acids for infants who are sensitive to or unable to digest intact protein

• DHA and ARA to help support brain and eye development

• Starts reducing colic symptoms due to protein sensitivity in 24 hours in most infants^1,*

• A unique blend of two carbohydrates using two absorptive pathways to help maximize absorption and minimize malabsorption risks

• Lactose-free carbohydrate for lactose sensitivity

• Ready To Feed formula is corn-free

• Contains oils that have been shown to be well absorbed. Approximately 33% of the fat as medium chain triglycerides

Preparation

• Hypo- and hypercaloric formulas should be used under the direction of a physician.
• 27 Cal/fl oz or more calorically dense formula may not supply enough water for some infants. Hydration status should be monitored and water supplied from other sources, if necessary.
• For improved tolerance, it is best to increase caloric density slowly, by 2- to 4-Cal/fl oz increments.
• Ready To Feed: Do not dilute.

• Powder:
  The following table shows the quantity of water to mix with the number of unpacked, level scoop(s) of Powder to arrive at the approximate caloric densities shown. Use only the scoop provided in the container.

  Caloric Density, Cal/fl oz	Water, fl oz	Unpacked Level Scoop	Approximate Yield, fl oz
  20 (standard)	2	1	2
  22	3.5	2	4
  24	5	3	6
  26	1.5	1	2
  27	4.25	3	5

  To make a larger amount of formula at standard mixture (20 Cal/fl oz) using a standard measuring cup, add 1 unpacked, level cup (NOT the enclosed scoop) of powder (118 g) to 27 fl oz of water. Yields approximately 30 fl oz of formula. Prepared formula should not be left unrefrigerated. Use within 24 hours.

• The contents of one 16-oz can (454 g), when mixed to standard dilution, will yield approximately 115 fl oz of formula.
