Gelmix thickens breast milk and infant formula, facilitating the retention of nutrients in breast milk and formula that requires thickening. Thickening liquids is often recommended for the management of conditions present with gastroesophageal reflux (GER) and dysphagia. Always consult a medical professional before thickening liquids to ensure it is appropriate for your infant’s individual needs. Gelmix is not for use with infants under 6 pounds and/or born preterm currently under a corrected age of 2 weeks. Do not use if galactosemia or allergy to galactomannans is suspected.
