Indications:

  • Sulphite Oxidase Deficiency
  • Other conditions requiring restriction of methionine and cystine

Directions for Preparation and Use:

  • The recommended dosage of XMet XCys Maxamaid is dependent on the age, bodyweight and medical condition of the patient and should be determined by a clinician or dietitian only.  This product must be supplemented with natural protein and other nutrients in medically prescribed quantities to supply the methionine, cystine and general nutrition requirements of the patient.

    Paste the prescribed amount of powder with a small amount of water.  Gradually stir in the remaining water until the required volume is achieved.  Initially, a 1 to 7 dilution is recommended (ie. 100g XMet XCys Maxamaid plus 700mls of water) with the concentration increasing to 1 to 5 (ie. 100g XMet XCys Maxamaid plus 500mls water), with increasing tolerance. These dilutions are guidelines only. XMet XCys Maxamaid can be taken as a more concentrated drink or paste, however water or diluted drinks should also be taken to counteract high osmolality.

    XMet XCys Maxamaid may be flavored with a separate flavoring from the SHS range.
