Clinical evidence

Premature infant nutrition

Fortifier

Supplementing mother’s own milk (MOM) with the first and only commercially available human milk–based fortifier made from 100% human donor milk instead of cow milk

Caloric fortifier

When premature infants need additional calories to support their growth, this human milk–based caloric fortifier delivers

Ready-to-feed

This ready-to-feed, human milk–based product offers NICUs a superior alternative to cow milk-based formula when MOM is not available

Human donor milk

When an adequate supply of MOM is not available, donor milk is rapidly becoming the standard of care for feeding premature infants

Adequately nourishing infants with mother’s own milk (MOM) fortified with human milk–based products

Since 2012, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has recommended human milk for preterm infants, whether MOM or pasteurized donor human milk if MOM is unavailable. For those infants born weighing less than 1500 g, the AAP recommends fortifying MOM or donor human milk with protein and minerals to ensure optimal nutrient intake.¹³ Our products help hospitals meet the nutritional needs of their medically fragile patients in the NICU.

Made with lab-tested donor milk in U.S. FDA-regulated manufacturing facilities

Hospitals choose Prolacta’s 100% human milk–based nutritional products for the assurance that they are receiving safe, standardized donor milk formulations processed in a pharmaceutical-grade facility under the strictest quality and safety guidelines to protect the health and well-being of their most fragile patients¹.
