Other Information:@@: Food for special medical purposes. HCU express® is an unflavoured powdered methionine free* protein substitute containing essential and non-essential amino acids, carbohydrate, vitamins, minerals and trace elements.
Indications
HCU express is for the dietary management of Homocystinuria (HCU) from 3 years onwards.
Dosage and Administration
To be determined by the clinician or dietitian, and is dependent on the age, body weight and medical condition of the patient.
The product can be used individually or interchanged to meet individual protein requirements.
1. The daily protein substitute requirement is given as HCU express.

- Empty the contents of the sachet, plus a flavour pac sachet if desired, into the beaker.
- Add approximately 80 - 100ml (for mini drink) or as much cold water as desired (for flexi drink). Secure lid and shake well for 10 seconds.
