Founded more than 100 years ago, Nutricia is pioneering research in order to deliver clinically proven specialized nutrition solutions. We work closely with healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers in order to make a real difference in people's lives.
Neocate® has over 30 years of experience in the nutritional management of cow milk allergy, multiple food allergies and related GI and allergic conditions. We know that every child has unique nutritional needs, and we are dedicated to offering the best-in-class range of products and services designed to support the changing nutritional needs of your growing child.
With a food allergy, the body’s immune system mistakes certain food proteins as unwelcome intruders (allergens) and attacks them. This attack is called an allergic reaction. Children may be allergic to one or more food proteins and may even be allergic to small fragments of these proteins found in hydrolyzed formulas.
Neocate is made with individual non-allergenic amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein. Amino acids are the simplest form of protein and are not large enough to trigger an allergic response.
Neocate is a hypoallergenic, amino acid-based formula used for the dietary management of:
• Cow Milk Allergy (CMA)
• Multiple Food Allergies (MFA)
• Related GI and Allergic Conditions:
- Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)
- Food Protein-induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES)*
- Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS)**
- Malabsorption**
- Gastroesophageal Reflux
* FPIES is not an indication for Neocate Nutra
** SBS & malabsorption are not indications for Neocate DHA&ARA infant formula
Neocate should always be used under medical supervision.
The Neocate family offers an age-specific range of amino acid-based formulas to support the changing nutritional needs of growing children from birth through school age and beyond. We also have an amino acid-based semi-solid food suitable from 6 months. Every Neocate product is based on 100% free amino acids, the building blocks of protein1,2.

UPDATE ON MONITORING MICRONUTRIENTS
Serum levels of micronutrients, particularly phosphorus, should be routinely monitored by clinicians when Neocate is used as a primary or sole source of nutrition for patients with complex systemic disease involving multiple diagnoses and intestinal disease*, especially in combination with tube feeding and/or a history of prematurity. Neocate** formulas are intended for use under medical supervision.
* A retrospective review identified case studies of patients on primary or sole source nutrition with diagnoses covering multiple systems, including congenital gastrointestinal anomalies and GI surgeries (such as necrotizing enterocolitis, esophageal atresia, tracheoesophageal fistula); neurological conditions (such as seizures, intraventricular hemorrhage, hydrocephalus); respiratory (lung disease, tracheostomy, aspiration); cardiac (congenital heart disease); and other systemic conditions, often in conjunction with tube feeding and/or a history of prematurity. ** Neocate is an amino acid-based formula for dietary management of cow milk allergy, multiple food protein allergies, and related GI and allergic conditions for which an amino acid-based diet is indicated.
