Abound

Dietetic food for special medical purposes, to be taken under medical supervision, indicated for the dietary management of malnourished patients who need to rebuild lean mass and repair damaged tissues.
An amino acid module consisting of a patented blend of arginine, glutamine, beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB), which promotes the recovery of lean body mass and wound healing.
It can be used for oral or tube feeding.
Available in 2 flavors: orange and neutral.

Instructions for use
The recommended daily dose is 2 sachets per day, unless otherwise indicated by the doctor based on the specific needs of each patient.
For oral use: dilute the contents of one sachet in 250 ml of water.
For tube feeding: do not mix Abound with other enteral nutrition formulas directly in the feeding bag. Pour the contents of one sachet into a suitable container and dilute with 125 ml of water. Mix well until completely dissolved. Ensure correct tube placement. Flush the tube with 30 ml of water before administering the Abound solution. Administer the Abound solution with a 60 ml or larger syringe. After administering the Abound solution, flush again with 30 ml of water (use a smaller amount of water if the patient needs to be fed a low-fluid diet).

Warnings
Do not use in septic patients.

Storage
If the solution is expected to be consumed within 4 hours of preparation, keep it at room temperature. If not used immediately, it can be stored in the refrigerator and must be used within 24 hours. Sealed Abound sachets can be stored at room temperature in a cool, dry place.
