EleCare® and EleCare® Jr

can help give your patient's story a happy ending.


EleCare® is designed to meet the nutritional needs of infants and EleCare® Jr is designed to meet the nutritional needs of children over 1 year of age who cannot tolerate intact or hydrolyzed protein. It's not just a progression— it's progressive nutrition.


EleCare and EleCare Jr are indicated for the dietary management of:
  • Severe food allergies
  • Eosinophilic GI disorders
  • Short bowel syndrome
  • Malabsorption
  • Protein maldigestion
  • GI tract impairment

Nutritionally Complete


Clinically Documented Success

  • Clinically shown to support the growth of exclusively formula-fed infants.1
  • Shown to be effective in maintaining growth for children with cow's milk protein allergy when used as a primary source of calories.2
  • Infants receiving EleCare showed decreased symptoms associated with protein-sensitive colitis after receiving EleCare for 42 days.3

Reliable tolerance for even your toughest patients

  • Hypoallergenic2—virtually eliminating the potential for an allergic reaction to the formula in multiple food allergic children.
  • 33% of fat blend as medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs)— an easily digested and absorbed fat source.
  • Clinically shown to be well tolerated in patients who cannot tolerate intact or hydrolyzed protein.1-2
  • Indicated for multiple conditions for infants and children of all ages.


Recipes are intended for children ages 1 year and older. Recipes were created with a previous formulation of EleCare but EleCare Jr Vanilla or Unflavored may be substituted.
