Nutritional Care
Clinical nutrition options, delivered with quality, precision and safety.
Proper clinical nutrition can make all the difference to a patient who needs to regain and maintain their health. For more than 70 years, we've been assisting healthcare providers in treating patients' diverse nutrient needs, introducing the first liquid proteins in the form of amino acids. Today, we offer a comprehensive portfolio of products for acute and chronic patients who are unable to take adequate oral or enteral nutrition, or require supplemental nutrition.
Our global product portfolio includes ready-to-use premix parenteral nutrition (PN) in several nutritionally balanced formulations containing amino acids (proteins), glucose (carbohydrates), IV fat emulsions (lipids), and electrolytes, as well as vitamins and trace elements. When patients have more complex, individualized nutritional needs, we also provide pharmacy workflow management, labeling and compounding technology to support their unique needs. This combination helps ensure you have options to appropriately prescribe nutritionally balanced PN therapy to meet your patients' needs.
