Description/Indication
PurAmino Jr Vanilla is a 30 Cal/fl oz, iron-fortified, hypoallergenic, amino acid-based medical food for the dietary management of children with severe cow’s milk protein allergy, not effectively managed by an extensively hydrolyzed formula. PurAmino Jr Vanilla is also indicated for the dietary management of children with multiple food protein allergies. It may also be suitable for conditions requiring an elemental diet such as protein maldigestion, malabsorption, short bowel syndrome and eosinophilic esophagitis.
Long-Term Usage: PurAmino Jr Vanilla is designed to provide a major source of nutrition for children age 1 year and up. In cases of severe and multiple food allergies or intolerances, PurAmino Jr Vanilla is sometimes
continued as a milk substitute in the diet of children. This and similar supplemental use of PurAmino Jr Vanilla in the diet may make a significant contribution to maintenance of good nutrition in such patients.
When PurAmino Jr Vanilla is used as a milk substitute, the total calcium content of the diet should be assessed.
Extended use of PurAmino Jr Vanilla (or other medical foods for children) is most appropriately monitored by physicians and nutritionists on a case-by-case basis
