Weight Gain Powder

[zoeg]

Hello,

I remember reading on here a few months back about a powder you can add to your child's food to add more calories to help with the weight gain. I can't remember what it is called- anyone know? Can I buy it at Walgreens over the counter or do I need a prescription? Also, do you feel as though it really works, and what kind of things do you add it to? I've got one of the world's pickiest eaters and anything to help her gain weight is appreciated!

Thanks,
Zoe mom to Kate wCF and Ava

There are two that I know of.

One is Polycose Powder. I use to get this OTC at my local pharmacy (dont know if you still can its been years) & there is Scandical through Axcan.


I found both of them pretty good. They dissolved well in most liquids & didnt change the taste of much.

We use Duocal. We have a prescription for it for insurance purposes - it's terribly expensive, but I wonder if you could purchase it through Medmark or from the company with out a scrip...? It's made by Nutricia (www.nutricia.com or www.MySpecialDiet.com)

I once used Scandical for my daughter. You might want to ask you CF clinic nutritionist if they have any free samples before getting a script. Our clinic usually has some samples on hand to try before getting a script. The scandical reminded me of Parmesan cheese, I would shake it on anything liquid to get more calories. I got a bottle from clinic for free and then didn't need to get anymore.
