Abbott Nepro With Carb Steady Vanilla Cans 24 X 8Oz Case

Good product, prompt delivery appreciated.

It’s an amazing drink, but specially for my husband who is on dialysis. However I live in Canada and the tea ack of 24 all together plus shipping costs $112. I ended up finding out I can buy it right from my pharmacy without a prescription and it’s $72 flat rate. If you want to save money ask your pharmacy to buy it. It also takes way too long to come, sometimes 2-3 weeks which is ridiculous considering I’m paying over $20 for shipping.

This product is a shake intended for people on dialysis treatment as I am. The dialysis treatment is a process in which your blood is cleaned of toxins due to kidney failure-the kidneys are the filters of the body and if they become impaired one suffers since the toxins stay in the body with deadly consequences. This treatment helps you stay alive for years even though your kidneys are not working. But, like any medical treatment, it has horrible side effects and one of them is that you get out of the treatment depleted of vitamins, minerals, and proteins-you feel tired, washed out, cranky, hungry, thirsty, wobbly, dizzy, and without energy-in fact one feels like a zombie. One good thing is that you can drink this shake and it replenishes your body again and you start feeling like yourself again. I drink it every time I get out of dialysis and it works for me-I have been in dialysis for seven years and many people don't believe I am since I look good and energetic. I recommend it to anyone in dialysis and maybe in other treatments but it is important to consult with your doctor first- it is not good to auto medicate oneself.

My husband has chronic kidney disease. He has to watch his potassium and phosphate levels which is really hard. He needs to maintain or gain weight. This is the perfect thing to add to his diet for calories. Very dense caloric content of 425 calories for just 8 oz. He says the vanilla tastes like a milkshake. He drinks 2 per day. They are very expensive, cheaper this way than buying in store though. It is worth it to us to get the nutrition...just wish they were less $$ so others could use them if they could not afford. I checked all 24 cans as there had been posts of dented and empties. All of mine were full, only 1 had a small dent

Nepro makes a decent tasting shake for people on dialysis. But this price is way too expensive! On the Abbott website it is much less.
