Transforming care for vulnerable babies through the power of human milk fortifiers
How it works
Prolacta makes a difference when it’s all on the line
By unlocking the biological power of human milk, we change the lives of preterm infants around the world. All of our products for preterm infants are clinically proven to improve health and reduce complications 1,2,3,4,5 when used as part of an Exclusive Human Milk Diet. Now, we’re bringing the power of human milk to critically ill term infants with gastroschisis, requiring corrective surgical procedure. 6
Surgifort® — The first and only human milk-based nutrition option approved by the US FDA for term infants
Prolacta’s dedication to improving outcomes for babies using human milk nutrition inspired the research and development of Surgifort® fortifier. Developed for critically ill infants, Surgifort fortifier was created to improve the outcomes of these small patient populations. Gastroschisis occurs in 1 of 2400 births in the US.14 Surgifort fortifier is the first and only 100% human milk-based fortifier intended for and approved by the US FDA for term infants with gastroschisis who have undergone a corrective procedure.
Setting the bar at state of the art
Operating the world’s first pharmaceutical-grade human milk processing facilities, we utilize vat pasteurization and a patented manufacturing process to retain the highest levels of essential bioactive components while ensuring pathogen inactivation.13
