Osmolite is liquid nutrition that is given to patients as a tube feed. It is designed for people who cannot get all the energy and nutrients they need by mouth and who might have or be at risk of malnutrition.
If you are unable to eat safely, for example if you have difficulty swallowing, or you are able to eat, but can’t eat enough to meet your nutritional needs, then your healthcare professional (e.g. consultant or dietitian) may recommend you with Osmolite to help you get the nutrients you need.
Osmolite is liquid nutrition that comes in a 500 ml or a 1000 ml ready-to-hang bottle and contains calories, protein, vitamins and minerals that your body needs. It can be used as your only source of nutrition, for example if you are unable to eat by mouth or can be used as a supplement in addition to the food you eat.
