Good service
I haven't used it yet but it was recommended by Royal Free hospital as pre-op support. Arrived on time and as described.

Received on time
Prompt delivery by Amazon as always, however I think Nutricia should have an option to purchase a pack of 6 rather than a pack of 8, as you are required to drink 4 bottles in an hour the night before surgery & 2 bottles two hours before surgery! So the other 2 either get thrown away or given to the hospital.

As used by hospitals prior to surgery
I was supposed to have this supplied by the hospital prior to major surgery but they had run out. Being able to order it from Amazon was a relief. It is inexpensive and not unpleasant to drink.
