energy & nutrient dense infant
formula for term babies*

A well-tolerated, calorie- and nutrient-dense
formula for infants falling off their growth curves

Are you managing term infants
who could benefit from catch-up
growth in cases of:

Poor weight gain

Volume intolerance

Feeding difficulties

Increased energy requirements
and/or fluid restrictions

Failure to Thrive (FTT)

Simplify catch-up growth with a new standard of
ready-to-feed, nutrient-dense infant formula

30

kcal/fl oz

to support increased energy
requirements and fluid restrictions.

50%

more energy (calories)

per fluid ounce than standard
infant formulas.

25%

more protein

per 100 kcal than leading infant
formulas, giving your patients the
protein they need.

The Fortini Difference

Fortini was created to meet the unique nutritional needs of term infants with growth failure.

Concentrated Standard Formula
Time needed
  • Well-tolerated at full strength from day one by most infants*
  • Can require a lengthy step-up process to higher calorie concentrations5,6
Tolerability
  • Equivalent tolerability as standard infant formula (20 kcal/fl oz)s7,9
  • Lower osmolality (360 mOsm/kg) than standard infant formula at 30 kcal/fl oz (460-507 mOsm/kg)10
  • Increases osmolality due to concentrating and fortifying,11 which can impact tolerability
  • Hyperosmolarity creates risk for osmotic diarrhea11-13
Protein
  • Delivers an optimal protein-to-energy ratio for term infants with FTT: contains 10.3% of calories from protein
  • Meets WHO/FAO/UNU guideline for percent of energy from protein (9-12%)
  • Usually contains around 8% of calories from protein, even when concentrated—falling short of recommendations for catch-up growth
Energy
  • Provides the highest energy in the smallest volume to support higher energy requirements and/or fluid restrictions
  • Requires concentrating to reach recommended caloric intake for catch-up growth with manageable volume
Errors & Contamination
  • No mixing, fortifying, or supplementing needed
  • Parents and caregivers must adhere to complicated recipes Risk of mixing errors14-16 and contamination17-19

*Infants ‹12 weeks may benefit from a graded introduction over 3 days
