Frequently Asked Questions About Fortimel Compact Vanilla
What is Fortimel Compact Vanilla used for?
Fortimel Compact Vanilla is an oral nutritional supplement for people who struggle to meet their nutritional needs through ordinary food alone. It provides concentrated energy and protein to supplement intake; it is not a treatment for the condition causing poor nutrition.
Can Fortimel Compact Vanilla replace a meal?
Fortimel Compact Vanilla is usually taken to supplement meals rather than replace a balanced meal. Use it as a meal replacement only if a healthcare professional has included it that way in your nutrition plan.
Does Fortimel Compact Vanilla help with weight gain?
Fortimel Compact Vanilla can help increase energy and protein intake, which may support weight gain when someone is undernourished or struggling to eat enough. It does not guarantee weight gain on its own; the result depends on the overall nutrition plan.

What is Fortimel Compact Vanilla?
Fortimel Compact Vanilla is a ready-to-drink oral nutritional supplement with a sweet vanilla flavour. It is made as a concentrated source of energy and protein in a small volume, so it is different from an everyday flavoured milk or a standard meal-time drink.
Its texture is noticeably richer than that of ordinary milk, and it can be sipped between meals or alongside food. In many countries, people use products like this to add nourishment without needing a large serving; it may also be served chilled if you prefer. Each 100 g provides 240 calories and 9.6 g of protein. It can suit someone who finds larger portions difficult, but is best treated as a supplement to meals, with serving guidance taken from the label or a healthcare professional.
