Vivonex Plus Elemental Powder — Unflavored, 2.8 oz Packets

Vivonex Plus is an elemental formula containing 100% free amino acids and a low fat content for those with severe gastrointestinal disorders: 300 calories per 2.8 oz packet, with 6% of calories from fat for improved tolerance and reduced pancreatic stimulation. Its glutamine, arginine and branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) content make it useful in stressed, catabolic patients. It requires minimal digestive functionality for assimilation while providing the benefits associated with continued use of the GI tract, and can be used for tube feeding or oral supplementation. It provides nutritional support for individuals with severely impaired GI function: transitional feeding, extensive bowel resection, severe protein and fat malabsorption, malabsorption syndrome, select trauma/surgery, early post-operative feeding, intestinal failure, pancreatitis, chylothorax, trophic feeding, TPN alternative, or dual feeding with TPN.
