PROPERTIES and USE 

Ultra-Baby is a food for special medical purposes for the nutritional needs of infants from birth, in cases of acute diarrhoea, including during antibiotic treatment.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 

1 to 2 stick(s) per day.
Ultra-Baby is to be mixed into a drink (milk, water) or a food suitable for children (compote, yoghurt, baby food jar). For bottle feeding, let the bottle cool to lukewarm before pouring in the contents of the stick. Ultra-Baby can be mixed with oral rehydration solutions.
Do not mix with a drink or food that is too hot.
Ultra-Baby must not be administered parenterally.

Precautions for use 

Ultra-Baby must be used under medical supervision. It is intended for infants and young children. It must not constitute the sole source of nutrition. It is intended to be used as a supplement to feeding or oral rehydration solutions.

Consult a doctor or pharmacist if the situation does not improve within 48 hours.

It is recommended not to open the sticks in the environment of patients with a central venous catheter, to avoid any colonisation of the catheter, particularly by hand transmission.

Indeed, very rare cases of fungaemia have been reported, mainly in patients with a central venous catheter, critically ill or immunodeficient patients, often presenting as fever. Nevertheless, in all cases these incidents resolved favourably after administration of antifungal treatment and, where applicable, after removal of the catheter.

Contraindications 

Do not use:

• in case of hypersensitivity to any of the constituents and intolerance to glucose or galactose;
  
• in patients with a central venous catheter, in a critical or immunodeficient state, due to the risk of fungaemia or septicaemia.
  

STORAGE CONDITIONS 

Store in a dry and cool place.
