PEPTAMEN® 1.5

PEPTAMEN® 1.5

Peptamen® 1.5 is a peptide-based calorically dense nutritionally complete formula designed to support tolerance and easy digestion in individuals with impaired GI function.

  • The evidence-based, well-tolerated, calorically-dense GI formula
  • Calorically dense to address nutritional needs in smaller volume
  • Balanced peptide profile promotes GI absorption and tolerance
  • Enzymatically hydrolyzed, 100% whey protein may facilitate gastric emptying
  • 70% of fat from MCT helps facilitate fat absorption, which supports formula tolerance
  • Nutritionally complete formula for tube feeding or oral supplementation
