- When fed according to the Abbott Nutrition Support Protocols, provides adequate amounts of all nutrients
- Provides approximately 40% of energy as fat to help achieve acceptable formula osmolality
- Provides 6.6% of energy as linoleic acid
- Powder fortified with L-carnitine (900 mg/100 g) to help supply amount normally found in human milk and foods of animal origin and to help excrete toxic metabolites

Powdered infant formulas are not sterile and should not be fed to premature infants or infants who might have immune problems unless directed and supervised by your baby's doctor.
To meet the nutrient needs of the infant or child, infant formula, breast milk or additional food choices must be given to supply protein and isoleucine, methionine, threonine and valine requirements. These may be added to the Propimex-1 mixture or prepared separately as instructed. Depending on the specific needs of each patient, preparation will vary as prescribed by physician.
Precautions
- Give only to infants and toddlers with proven propionic acidemia or methylmalonic acidemia who are under medical supervision. Must be supplemented with protein and fluid in prescribed amounts to completely meet isoleucine, methionine, threonine, valine and water requirements.
- Not for sole-source nutrition
- Never use a microwave oven to warm mixture. Serious burns can result.
- Not for IV use
