Does jevity 1.5 which is a nutritional formula i use through a peg tube cause bad breath or bad taste in mouth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Jevity: Since it isn't meant to be tasted, Jevity is rather...unappealing. If you are tasting it, please discuss with your doctor. Meanwhile consider sitting up during your feed.
