Effect of fortifiers on the osmolality of preterm human milk.

CONCLUSIONS: The osmolality of preterm HM fortified with PF up to 28 kcal/oz does not exceed the American Academy of Paediatrics recommendation of 450 mOsm/kg. The addition of extra protein to preterm HM fortified with commercial HMF must be cautiously considered due to the risk of excessively high osmolality.
