Frequently Asked Questions About Extracal
What is Extracal used for?
Extracal is a medical nutrition supplement intended to add energy, protein, vitamins and minerals to someone’s diet. It may be recommended when a person cannot meet their nutritional needs through usual meals alone.
How do you take Extracal?
Take Extracal according to the directions on its bottle and the amount recommended for you. Follow your nutrition plan on whether to have it alongside meals or at a particular time of day.
Can Extracal replace a meal?
Extracal should not automatically be treated as a meal replacement. It is commonly used to supplement the diet; use it instead of a meal only if that is specifically part of your nutrition plan.
Does Extracal help you gain weight?
Extracal adds energy and protein, which may help someone meet a weight-gain goal when included in an appropriate nutrition plan. It does not guarantee weight gain on its own.
Can you drink Extracal if you have a poor appetite?
Yes, Extracal may be used as nutritional support when poor appetite makes it difficult to eat enough. Its bottled format can be convenient, but the amount and timing should match your individual plan.
Does Extracal need to be refrigerated after opening?
Follow the storage directions on the Extracal bottle once it has been opened. Keep it sealed between servings and use the stated storage temperature and time limit, since these instructions can vary by product.
Can you heat Extracal?
Do not heat Extracal in its bottle. If you prefer it warm, transfer it to a suitable container and only warm it if the package instructions allow; do not microwave the bottle.
Can Extracal be used as a tube feed?
Do not put Extracal through a feeding tube unless its packaging explicitly says it is suitable for tube feeding and your care team has approved it. A bottled supplement is not automatically compatible with feeding tubes.
Can people with diabetes drink Extracal?
People with diabetes should not assume Extracal is suitable without checking how it fits their glucose-management plan. Its carbohydrate content may affect blood glucose, so the product information and individual needs matter.
Is Extracal suitable for children?
Extracal should only be given to a child when the product is appropriate for that age and the child’s recommended amount is clear. Children’s nutritional needs differ from adults’, so do not assume an adult serving is suitable.
