The amount of OS 2 needed
to supplement total daily protein requirements (other than
isoleucine, methionine, threonine and valine) depends on
age, body weight and individual tolerance for isoleucine,
methionine, threonine and valine. The dose of OS
2 must be determined by a physician or dietitian
and adjusted periodically. Diets with OS 2 must contain adequate
amounts of energy, essential fatty acids, isoleucine, methionine,
threonine and valine to meet daily requirements.
The daily
amount required should be divided into 3 to 5 single portions
and can be taken mixed with calculated amounts of other food
(e.g. beverages, fruit mousse). For accuracy, OS
2 should be weighed on a gram scale.
