Vivonex® T.E.N. — Elemental Nutrition for Severely Compromised GI Function

When your digestive system struggles to break down standard formulas, Vivonex® T.E.N. offers a carefully crafted alternative. This elemental, free-amino acid formula supports nutrition in patients with severe gastrointestinal impairment.

Key Features & Benefits

• 100% free amino acids (no intact proteins) — reduces digestive workload while delivering essential building blocks.
• Very low fat content — only ~3% of calories from fat — helps support gastric emptying, minimize pancreatic stimulation, and improve tolerance.
• Full nutrition in elemental form — provides all vitamins, minerals, and macros needed, with minimal digestive demand.
• Versatile use — suitable for tube feeding or oral supplementation (where tolerated).
• Dietary compatibility — lactose-free, gluten-free, kosher.
• Designed for ages over 3 years — not intended for infants under 3.

How & When to Use

• Recommended for patients with severe GI dysfunction, such as malabsorption, high-output fistula, extensive bowel resection, or post-operative GI compromise.
• Because of its elemental nature, minimal digestion is required — ideal when digestive capacity is limited.
• Use under medical supervision only — as an advanced nutrition support formula.
• Do not use parenterally (IV) — this product is for enteral (oral or tube) feeding only.
