For enteral use only. Not for parenteral use.
Not suitable as a sole source of nutrition.
Suitable for children 8 years and older, and adults.
Only to be used by individuals with proven maple syrup urine disease (MSUD).

This product should not be used as a sole source of protein but must be given in conjunction with natural protein and other nutrients to supply the isoleucine, leucine, and valine, fluid and general nutrition requirements of the patient as prescribed by their healthcare professional.

The recommended dosage and timing of intake is dependent on the age, bodyweight and medical condition of the patient, and should be determined by a dietitian or clinician only.

The required daily amount should be divided into equal portions and distributed throughout the day. Water or diluted drinks should be offered or taken at the same time. To ensure tolerance the product may initially need to be introduced at a lower concentration. The quantity and dilution of this product can be adapted to the tolerance and preferences of the individual under supervision of a clinician or dietitian.

Recommended feed dilution:
It is recommended that the patient starts at a 1 to 7 dilution (e.g. 10g powder + 70ml water) and builds up to a 1 to 5 dilution (e.g. 10g powder + 50ml water) as tolerance increases.

  • 1 level scoop = 34.5g powder
  • 1 level scoop provides 13.5g protein equivalent

Make a paste with the prescribed quantity of powder by adding a small amount of water, before gradually diluting to the final volume required.

Best served chilled. Stir before use.

MSUD Maxamum Unflavoured may be flavoured by adding a separate flavour modjul / flavour sachet from the Nutricia range.
