Preparation and Directions for Usage
XPHEN TYR Tyrosidon is a powdered supplement that requires preparation. The quantity of feed and dilution should be determined by a clinician or dietitian only, and is dependent on the age, body weight and medical condition of the patient.
Preparation Instructions

Continue stirring whilst adding the remaining volume of water. Tyrosidon can be taken as a chilled drink. It can also be taken as a paste, additional water or diluted drinks must be consumed at the same time. Tyrosidon may be also flavoured with a separate flavour from the Nutricia flavour range. Please note flavouring is not recommended for infants less than six months.
