RELiZORB Hydrolyzes Fats Prior to Ingestion
RELiZORB is a digestive enzyme cartridge that contains iLipase® and connects in-line with enteral feeding systems. Lipase is covalently bound to the small white beads inside the cartridge. The lipase-bead complex, iLipase, is retained within the RELiZORB cartridge during use by two filters. As the enteral formula flows through, the iLipase hydroylzes the fats in the formula into an absorbable form (fatty acids and monoglycerides) for your patient.

RELiZORB is proven to hydrolyze available fats, including medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and long-chain triglycerides (LCTs).1
- LCTs are complex and contain essential fatty acids2
- Compared to MCTs, LCTs are harder to hydrolyze but provide ~10% more calories2
- RELiZORB is intended to provide continuous fat hydrolysis during enteral feeding
