Product Description

Osmolite 1.5kcal is a 1.5 kcal/ml complete, balanced liquid enteral feed suitable as a sole source of nutrition or as a nutritional supplement for patients who cannot or will not eat sufficient quantities of everyday food and drink to meet their nutritional requirements. 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 features a balanced macronutrient profile with protein providing 16.64% of energy, carbohydrates 54.04%, and fat 29.32%. It is fibre-free, making it suitable for patients who require a low residue diet or have specific digestive requirements. The product contains a blend of high-quality protein sources including sodium caseinate, soy protein isolate, and calcium caseinate.

Osmolite 1.5kcal is nutritionally complete for vitamins and minerals in 1071ml (excluding electrolytes, calculated using the UK Reference Nutrient Intake for men aged 19-50 years). Available in 500ml Ready to Hang (RTH) containers in unflavoured presentation. The product has a low viscosity and will pass down a fine nasogastric tube, making it suitable for tube feeding administration.

Suitable for people with diabetes provided that routine glucose checks are performed. This product is designed for enteral use only and should be administered at room temperature for tube feeding.

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 rate 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.
