Vitaflo Isoleucine50 — Precision Isoleucine Supplement for MSUD & Metabolic Needs
Vitaflo Isoleucine50 is a carefully formulated, pre-measured medical food powder tailored for individuals with inborn errors of amino acid metabolism—such as Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD)—who require exact amounts of L-isoleucine that cannot be met by diet alone. Each single-use 4 g sachet delivers 50 mg of L-isoleucine.
Key Features & Benefits
- Precisely-measured dosing: Each 4 g packet contains exactly 50 mg of L-isoleucine—no weighing needed, which reduces error and simplifies use.
- Carbohydrate-based powder: The product is formulated on a carbohydrate base, making it easy to add to low-protein feeds, modular nutrition, or permitted drinks.
- Suitable from early age: Can be used from 1 year of age and up (as determined by the metabolic care team) for enteral or oral use under supervision.
- Low calorie, carefully constructed: Provides ~15 kcal per packet, with minimal protein equivalent (~0.04 g) so it fits into restricted or low-protein diets.
How to Use
- Use only as directed under the supervision of a metabolic dietitian or physician.
- Determine the prescribed number of packets based on age, weight and metabolic needs.
- Mix one packet with a suitable amount (~60 mL) of permitted liquid or feed (as directed by clinician) then administer orally or via feeding tube.
- Store unopened packets in a cool, dry place; once opened, use immediately according to guidelines.
Important Things To Know
- Medical food only: Isoleucine50 is intended for the dietary management of inherited metabolic disorders and must be used under medical supervision.
- Not a sole nutrition source: This product does not replace full nutrition; the rest of the diet must be managed accordingly.
- For enteral use only (safe for feeding tube as per clinician’s plan).
- The proper dose and use must be tailored by a healthcare professional experienced in metabolic disorders.
- Because of the precision needed, always verify you’re using the correct sachet (Isoleucine50 vs Isoleucine1000) to avoid overdose or underdose.
