Vivonex® Plus Elemental Powder Overview

VIVONEX Plus Elemental Powder is a high-nitrogen, very low fat, elemental (100% free amino acids) diet for total enteral nutrition. Additional free glutamine (10 g/L), enhanced arginine and branched-chain amino acid contents make it especially useful in stressed, catabolic patients. Vivonex Plus may be used post-operatively as an enteral alternative to TPN and may also benefit patients with gastrointestinal impairment. Each 2.8 oz. dry packet (79.5 g of Vivonex Plus powder), when reconstituted with 250 mL water, delivers 300 mL of formula.

Product Features and Benefits

  • 100% free amino acids for severely compromised GI tracts
  • 6% of calories from fat for improved tolerance and reduced pancreatic stimulation
  • Glutamine, arginine and branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) content make it especially useful in stressed, catabolic patients
  • Requires minimal digestive functionality for assimilation while providing benefits associated with continued use of the GI tract
  • Can be used for tube feeding or oral supplementation
  • Appropriate for lactose-free, gluten-free, low-residue and kosher diets.
