Giving them what they need, to be the kid they want to be

At Nutricia, we know that you want to see each of your patients grow and develop to their full potential, so we aim to provide products and services to assist you with the early years of their PKU journey. 

The PKU Anamix range of protein substitutes is specifically tailored for infants and children with phenylketoniuria.  Our products in the Anamix range are there from the beginning, as part of weaning and for the early school years.  We know that sticking to a low protein diet can be difficult with infants, toddlers, and kids, and we are here to support you and your patients with convenient, and varied protein substitute options at every stage.

At Nutricia, we can continue to support your patient’s PKU diet, beyond Anamix, with other products such as the PKU Lophlex range, from 3+ years, into adulthood.

We know that infants and children can struggle to stay compliant with their protein substitutes, and the Anamix 6 Club is there to support both the patient and their parents, and educate kids on the importance of good nutrition and sticking to their diet.  We send regular activities, story books and information via email and post.
