Does anyone know where to get Neocate. My pediatrician’s office has never heard of it. MY Ped. GI appt. is not for over a month and I can’t wait that long. I’m willing to try anything in the meantime…
Our HyVee carries it so that you can just buy a can at a time. I would make a bunch of calls. Our Walmart also told me they would order it in for us but HyVee is more convenient to where we live. Unfortunately, it may take up to two weeks of a trial before you know how the Neocate is doing. You may need several cans. It makes me wonder when you said your pediatritian’s office hadn’t heard of it. hum???
our peds never heard of it either. after alimentum was a failrure, she told me my last option was pregestamil. ummm? no? it was really hard for her to grasp the concept that pregestamil isnt that much different from alimentum-both contain milk proteins, and that neocate was completely milk free. weird, i know
I order it directly from the manufacturer website, Nutricia. You can google it to get the direct link. My ped Gi told me that many pharmacies mark up the Neocate, as much as 30%, so be careful. ALso, the website offers free shipping too. hope this helps.
We order it directly from the company that makes it, Nutricia North America (also called SHS North America) and they ship it to us really fast and for free. Here is the website. http://www.shsna.com/ I phoned the 1-800 number and they were very helpful. Good Luck!
