Are Nutricia products suitable for people with Cows’ milk protein allergy?
Nutricia produces the Neocate range of products which are specially designed for infants and children with cows’ milk protein allergy. Most of the other Nutricia oral nutritional supplements are based on cows’ milk protein so are not suitable for these patients. Nutricia produces an adult tube feed called Nutrison Soya, which is prescribable for disease related malnutrition in patients who have cows’ milk protein intolerance. This is unflavoured and so if taken orally needs to be decanted into a suitable drinking vessel and appropriate flavourings added to increase palatability.
