Abstract: Guidelines for breastfeeding an infant with phenylketonuria (PKU) are presented in this manual developed for health professionals with support from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Rationale for the use of human milk in feeding PKU infants is provided, considering its protein, amino acid pattern, and nitrogen content. Aspects of dietary management of PKU include hospitalization, initial prescription, dietary management after control is established, and monitoring of serum phenylalanine and other clinical chemistries.
