The PEPTAMEN Formula Difference.
Peptamen tube-feeding formulas are specialized enteral nutrition designed to support absorption and tolerance in individuals with a gastrointestinal disorder (GI). GI disorders can cause nutritional challenges. Depending on the severity of the condition, intake and digestion of nutrients can be challenging. Peptamen tube-feeding formulas can help to these challenges so you can be nourishing every day with confidence.
- Cannot tolerate formulas with intact or whole protein, also known as standard formulas
- Have digestive tract impairment, which may lead to diarrhea, vomiting or discomfort associated with tube feeding
- May have problems digesting or absorbing protein or fat
Peptamen formulas are intended for use under medical supervision.
