Product Description
Vital 1.5kcal is a 1.5 kcal/ml complete, balanced, peptide-based liquid feed specifically designed for patients with malabsorption and/or feed intolerance. This high-energy formula provides concentrated nutrition in a smaller volume, making it ideal for patients with increased energy needs or fluid restrictions.
The formula contains 70% MCT (Medium Chain Triglycerides) from palm kernel oil, which are more easily absorbed than long-chain fatty acids, making it ideal for patients with fat malabsorption. The protein is derived from whey protein hydrolysate (70%) and hydrolysed sodium caseinate (30%), providing a complete amino acid profile in an easily digestible form.
Manufactured by Abbott Laboratories Ltd, a global leader in clinical nutrition, Vital 1.5kcal is nutritionally complete for vitamins and minerals in 1000ml (excluding electrolytes, calculated using the UK Reference Nutrient Intake for men aged 19-50 years). The product has a low viscosity that will pass down a fine nasogastric tube, making it suitable for tube feeding administration.
Vital 1.5kcal is gluten-free, clinically lactose-free, and suitable for vegetarians. It is designed for enteral use only and should be administered at room temperature for tube feeding. With 18.0% of energy from protein and a non-protein calorie to nitrogen ratio of 114:1, it provides balanced nutrition for patients with malabsorption-related conditions. Suitable for people with diabetes provided that routine glucose checks are performed.
Usage Instructions
⚠️ FOR ENTERAL USE ONLY - This product is designed for tube feeding and must not be taken orally.
Administration Method
Ready for use. Administer at room temperature for tube feeding. The volume/flow should be adjusted to meet the patient's nutritional needs and tolerance. This product has a low viscosity and will pass down a fine nasogastric tube.
A Flexitainer enteral nutrition container may be used if decanting is necessary. For gravity feeding, use of a Flexiflo gravity gavage set is recommended. An Abbott enteral feeding pump may be used in conjunction with the Abbott enteral feeding system where a more accurately controlled delivery of feed is indicated. An ambulatory system is available.
Community Use - Prescriptions
Vital 1.5kcal can be prescribed on FP10 (GP10 in Scotland) for patients with conditions resulting in malabsorption including:
- Disease-related malnutrition
- Short bowel syndrome
- Intractable malabsorption
- Bowel fistulae
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Total gastrectomy
- Dysphagia
- Pre-operative preparation for patients who are malnourished
All prescriptions should be endorsed ACBS (Advisory Committee on Borderline Substances).
Storage & Directions
- Store unopened at room temperature and avoid prolonged exposure of the RTH container to light

- Unless recommended by a qualified healthcare professional, not intended for use in children
