Peptamen® 1.5 with PREBIO¹™ — High-Density, Gut-Friendly Peptide Formula

When gastrointestinal tolerance is challenged, or when you need more nutrition in less volume, Peptamen® 1.5 with PREBIO¹™ delivers a peptide-based, calorically dense, and gut-supportive formula designed for both oral and tube feeding use.

Key Benefits & Features

• 1.5 kcal/mL energy density — delivers full nutrition in lower volume, useful for patients with fluid or volume restrictions.
• Peptide-based formula using enzymatically hydrolyzed 100% whey protein — supports easier digestion and absorption, and may help promote gastric emptying.
• PREBIO¹™ soluble fiber blend (6.4 g/L) — includes inulin and fructo-oligosaccharides to support gut health by encouraging beneficial bacteria growth.
• 70% of fat from MCT (medium-chain triglycerides) — enhances fat absorption and is gentler on the digestive tract.
• Balanced macronutrient profile: 18% protein, 50% carbohydrate, 32% fat (by calorie)
• Versatile use — suitable for tube feeding or oral supplementation (vanilla flavor).
• Dietary accommodations — gluten-free, lactose tolerant (but not suitable for galactosemia).
• Medical supervision recommended — this is a medical nutrition product intended for use under the guidance of healthcare professionals.
