Galactomin 17 (Galactosaemia all ages)

  • Description:

    Galactomin 17 is a nutritionally complete infant formula containing cow milk protein, carbohydrate (glucose), fat, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. A food for special medical purposes.
  • Indications and Prescribability:

    Galactomin 17 can be recommended for use in infants as a sole source
    of nutrition or as a supplementary feed for children for the dietary
    management of Galactosaemia and galactokinase deficiency.

  • Suggested Intake:

    The quantity of Galactomin 17 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.

  • Preparation & Administration:

    Each level scoop (4.3g) of Galactomin 17 requires 30ml (approximately
    1fl.oz) to yield the recommended feed concentration of 13.6%.

    1. Wash hands. Sterilise feeding bottle and teat. Boil fresh water. Cool
    boiled water so that it feels warm to the wrist and pour the desired
    amount into sterilised feeding bottle.
    2. Add the prescribed number of scoops of Galactomin 17 to water,
    levelling off the powder in the scoop with the back of a clean, dry knife.
    Do not press the powder down into the scoop.
    3. Replace the cap on the bottle and shake until the powder dissolves.
    Before feeding, ensure that the feed is at the correct temperature.
    Galactomin 17 is now ready for use.

    When bottle feeding, prolonged or frequent contact of feeds with the
    infant’s teeth should be discouraged as this increases the risk of tooth
    decay. Cleaning the infant’s teeth after the last feed at night should be
    encouraged.
