Adamin-G

Adamin G is a Food for Special Medical Purposes for use under medical supervision. A powdered form of the amino acid L-glutamine.

Must be used under medical supervision. For enteral use only. Not suitable as a sole source of nutrition. Suitable for use from birth.

The quantity of the feed and the dilution should be determined by a clinician or dietitian only, and is dependent on the age, bodyweight and medical condition of the patient. For sip or tube feeding, the product can be added directly to the liquid formulae. For powdered formulae, the product is best added to the powder before reconstitution. Alternatively, the product may be sprinkled on to cold water and taken as a neutral tasting drink. The recommended dilution is one sachet plus 200ml water. It is recommended that the drink is stirred vigorously to ensure that the L-Glutamine is fully dissolved. If used for patients over 6 months of age flavouring can be added if required.

L-Glutamine Allergy Advice: For allergens, see ingredients in bold.

Best before: see top of pack.

Store in a cool dry place. Once reconstituted Adamin-G should be used within 24 hours from the time of preparation.
