NOVASOURCE® Renal — Kidney-Focused, Calorie-Dense Tube Feeding Nutrition

When kidney function is compromised—whether by chronic kidney disease (CKD), dialysis, or acute kidney injury (AKI)—nutrition must be carefully balanced. NOVASOURCE® Renal is a nutritionally complete, calorie-dense tube-feeding formula designed to support patients with renal needs, fluid restrictions, and electrolytic balance considerations.

Key Benefits & Features

• High calorie density: 2.0 kcal per mL in a 1000 mL container (total ≈ 2000 kcal) — ideal when volume intake is limited.
• Protein-rich for renal support: ~19 % of calories from protein (≈ 92.8 g per liter) — helps compensate for protein losses during dialysis.
• Electrolyte-modulated profile: Lowered potassium, phosphorus, sodium, and magnesium to help manage common imbalances in renal patients.
• Tailored for renal and fluid restrictions: Designed for individuals with CKD (dialysis), AKI, or those under fluid/electrolyte constraints.
• Unflavored & ready to hang: Neutral taste helps with compatibility in feeding protocols; pre-filled 1000 mL Ready-Hang container simplifies administration.
• Dietary accommodations: Suitable for gluten-free, lactose-intolerant, and kosher diets (under supervision)

How & When to Use

• Administration: For tube feeding use (enteral nutrition), not for intravenous use.
• Use under medical supervision: Especially important in renal and critical care settings.
• Volume-sensitive regimes: Its dense caloric formulation helps when patients cannot tolerate large volumes of nutrition.
• Typical settings: Applied in clinical settings including CKD management, dialysis, AKI recovery, and electrolyte or fluid-restricted protocols.

Shelf Life & Storage

• Check “Use By” date: Always verify the printed expiration date on each container.
• Before opening: Store at room temperature in a cool, dry place. (Refrigeration not required pre-use.)
• After opening: Cover, refrigerate immediately, and use within 24 hours.
• Do not heat: Heating may compromise formula integrity or nutrient effectiveness.
