Heparon Junior

  • Description:

    Heparon Junior is a nutritionally complete powdered formula containing cow’s milk protein, carbohydrate, fat, vitamins, minerals and trace elements with significantly increased levels of vitamins A, D, E and K, increased BCAA and zinc content, and low levels of sodium and very low levels of copper.

  • Indications and Prescribability:

    Heparon Junior is designed to provide complete nutritional support or supplementary feeding for infants and young children with acute and chronic liver failure.

  • Suggested Intake:

    The quantity of Heparon Junior feed 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.
    Contraindicated in Galactosemia.

  • Preparation & Administration:

    The recommended feed concentration is 18% w/v i.e. 18g Heparon Junior made up to 100ml with water.
    For bottle feeding preparation:

    THE HEALTH OF YOUR INFANT DEPENDS ON CAREFULLY FOLLOWING THE DIRECTIONS FOR PREPARATION AND USE. INCORRECT PREPARATION CAN MAKE YOUR BABY ILL.

    Always use 4 level scoops (4 x 4.5g) of Heparon Junior for every 90 mls (approx 3 fl oz) of water to yield the recommended feed concentration (18%)

    1. Wash hands thoroughly and clean preparation area. Sterilise bottles and teats.
    2. Boil fresh water for 5 minutes and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes so that it feels warm to the wrist. Pour the required amount of water into a sterilised feeding bottle.
    3. Fill the scoop provided with Heparon Junior and level off with a clean, dry knife. Do not press the powder into the scoop. Only use the scoop provided.
    4. Add the prescribed number of scoops of Heparon Junior to the water. Replace the cap on the bottle and shake until the powder dissolves. Before feeding ensure that the formula is at the correct temperature by placing a few drops on the wrist.
    5. Formula remaining in the bottle after one hour of feeding should be discarded. Formula must not be rewarmed during feeding.

    Important Notice: Powdered infant formula is not sterile. Where possible, and especially for infants who are vulnerable to infection, prepare formula immediately prior to feeding.

    NOTE:
    If formula is prepared in advance it must be cooled rapidly, stored in the refrigerator (2ºC to 4ºC) and used within 24 hours of preparation. Any formula remaining after 24 hours from preparation must be discarded.  Shake or stir formula immediately before use. Formula should not be warmed for longer than 15 minutes prior to feeding. Do not boil formula and do not use a microwave oven to prepare or warm formula.  For tube feeding “hang time” should not exceed 4 hours.

  • Precautions:

    Must only be used under strict medical supervision.
    Not for parenteral use.

  • Storage:

    Store in a cool dry place.
    Always replace the container lid after use.
    Once opened use within one month.
