Frequently asked questions

Does this formula support easier digestion?

Yes. Peptamen 1.5 is specifically engineered for individuals with impaired GI function. It utilizes enzymatically hydrolyzed 100% whey protein, which is designed to improve gastric emptying and enhance protein absorption.

Is this formula suitable for those with fat malabsorption?

Absolutely. The formula is crafted with 70% of fats derived from medium-chain triglycerides (MCT). MCTs are highly beneficial for patients who struggle with fat absorption due to conditions like short bowel syndrome or chronic diarrhea.

Can this help patients on fluid-restricted diets?

Yes, it is highly effective for that purpose. Because it is calorically dense, it provides 1500 calories per 1000 mL container, allowing patients to meet their high nutritional and caloric needs without requiring large volumes of fluid.

Is the formula free from common allergens?

The Peptamen 1.5 formula is both lactose-free and gluten-free, making it a versatile option for patients with these specific dietary sensitivities or restrictions.

Is the container designed for sterile administration?

Yes. The product comes in a ready-to-hang prefilled container that minimizes preparation time and supports a sterile, efficient administration process in both clinical and home-care settings.

Is this product safe for Jewish patients?

Yes, Peptamen 1.5 is kosher certified, ensuring it meets necessary dietary standards.

How is the protein source sourced?

The formula uses 100% enzymatically hydrolyzed whey protein. This high-quality protein source is chosen specifically to ensure better tolerance and absorption compared to intact protein sources.

Is this product intended for direct intravenous use?

No. This product is strictly for enteral tube feeding only and is not for parenteral (intravenous) use. It should always be used under the direction and supervision of a medical professional.

What kind of feeding equipment is required?

The container features a SpikeRight PLUS port, which is designed for a secure connection to standard enteral feeding lines. It can be used with:

Enteral feeding pumps
Gravity-fed tube setups

Is this formula nutritionally complete?

Yes. Peptamen 1.5 is a nutritionally complete liquid formula, meaning it contains the necessary balance of nutrients to sustain a patient when used as their primary or supplemental source of nutrition.
