5 out of 5 stars Great Stuff   January 10, 2008

Daughter diagnosed with Failture to Thrive. This is the only thing that is working. Too bad insurance doesn't pay a dime to cover this medically necessitated formula


5 out of 5 stars very $$$ try to get an Rx from a doctor-otherwise it is great!   November 19, 2006

Our 1 year old daughter has a g-tube and we use this powder to add extra calories to my pumped breastmilk (27 calorie feeds) We tryed preemie infant formula and human milk fortifier and everything else under the sun and it caused her to have excessive gas and malabsorbtion EXCEPT Elecare. The wonderful thing about this powder is that it can be used up until your child is 10 years old, so we will not have to transition her to something else as she grows- just change the amount of powder she gets as she grows and her calorie needs change.It is very pricey however- if your child REALLY needs this, then obviously your child is most likely (or definately SHOULD be ) seeing a pediatric gastroenterologist - try to get this covered on insurance. It smells kinda nasty (luckily she dosnt taste it because it goes through the feeding tube) and you really reallly have to shake up the container/bottle (whatever you use to mix it up in)aggressively to get it to mix without little powdery lumps-otherwise it is just wonderful!


4 out of 5 stars Product is great- but be careful when ordering from Amazon   June 29, 2006
M. Mcallister (Philadelphia, pa United States)
My son has been on Elecare for 5 months. He is allergic to everything but this formula. This is the one product that he can consume without getting rashes. Well worth the money. The formula smells really bad but he seems to like the taste so, really, I guess it doesn't matter what I think of the smell.

The only concern that I would like to voice is that you should order the Elecare WELL in advance of when you think you are going to need it. I ordered it with 3-5 day delivery from Amazon and have now waited over 20 days. I had 5 cans at the time of the order which was certainly enough for 2 weeks. They changed the delivery timeframe on their website but did not bother to tell me. I called after waiting about 10 days and they informed me that it was back ordered. I again waited to that last day of their estimated delivery date and it did not arrive. I searched for the product on Amazon and surprisingly Elecare was not even listed on the website. At this point I was very frustrated and called back. They couldnt tell me when it was going to arrive. I cancelled the order. Now Elecare is listed on Amazon again but I cant take the chance and run out when they don't get it to me.
