The addition of 2’-FL to Neocate® SYNEO ™ has no effect on how the product should be used and tolerated. 4-7 Neocate® SYNEO ™ INFANT (with 2’-FL) is suitable for exactly the same patient population and can be prepared in exactly the same way as the current Neocate® SYNEO ™ formulation.
This updated formulation will have the same PBS code (11331J) and PHARMAC code (684713) as the current Neocate® SYNEO ™.
You should be able to transition/swap straight from your current Neocate® SYNEO™ to the updated Neocate® SYNEO™ INFANT (with 2’-FL) recipe without any issues. If, in the unlikely event, you encounter a reaction, please contact your GP or healthcare provider.
The current Neocate® SYNEO ™ will be discontinued on October 1st to be replaced by the new formula with 2’-FL.
