Otsuka Pharmaceutical to Launch New, Pre-mixed Flavor Formulations (Fruit and Coffee) for Aminoleban EN, an Oral Nutritional Supplement for Patients with Liver Failure

Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. announces that it has received approval for a partial change of composition in the flavor formulation of Aminoleban EN, an oral nutritional supplement for patients with liver failure, in order to introduce pre-mixed fruit and coffee flavors. These will become available for use by medical institutions across Japan from December 20.

Aminoleban EN formulations henceforth will be made with the delicious fruit and coffee flavors already added. Sale of products not containing flavoring, as well as products with four types of flavoring that require mixing prior to consumption (yoghurt flavor mix, pineapple flavor mix, coffee flavor mix and fruit flavor mix) will be discontinued.
