IMPACT® Peptide 1.5 — Advanced Immunonutrition for Surgical & Critical Care Patients

IMPACT® Peptide 1.5 is a specialized, peptide-based enteral formula designed to support the immune system, promote wound healing, and improve tolerance in surgical and critically ill patients. With a unique blend of immunonutrients, high protein content, and peptide-based absorption, it helps reduce infection risks, hospital stays, and ventilator days.

Key Benefits & Features

• Clinically studied immunonutrient blend: Only IMPACT® formulas include a unique mix of L-arginine, omega-3 fatty acids, and dietary nucleotides, shown to support immune health and recovery in surgical and critically ill patients.
• Proven outcomes: Associated with reduced infection rates, length of hospital stay, and ventilator days when used as early enteral nutrition.
• Optimized protein: Provides high protein plus L-arginine, zinc, and antioxidants to support wound healing and tissue repair.
• Better tolerance: Hydrolyzed protein and a 50:50 MCT:LCT fat blend aid absorption, making it easier to tolerate for patients with GI stress.
• Supported by guidelines: Its immune-modulating nutrients are recommended for perioperative use by the Critical Care Nutrition Guidelines.
