Honestly TOO SWEET
This was recommended for my boy who is very picky and is below average weight. I’ve been using this for 2 weeks now. I don’t know if there’s been a difference. I’m sure it’ll take time. The thing is, it’s so sweet. I don’t understand how any parent would let their kid drink the whole thing. My picky toddler wouldn’t drink it alone because it was so sweet. I had to mix 1-2oz into his milk throughout the whole day.

PediaSure Works
PediaSure really works. My 5 1/2 year old started drinking these on 6/22 and today is 7/10. It's been 2 weeks and 4 days. She has gained 1.2 lbs. I started her on 1 drink a day and then increased to 1 1/2 bottles a day which is 360 extra calories that she's getting per day. Stick with it and make sure that your child is also eating close to 350 calories per meal (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). If they can't reach that per meal then include 2-3 healthy snacks that are no smaller than 90-100 calories. I give her 1/2 a PediaSure about 1 hour - 1 1/2 hours after a meal if she ate all of her food (time for food to digest or a toilet break). If she didn't finish much of her food for that meal then I let her drink it about 20-30 mins after meal time ended. We offer her 1/2 a bottle (3x a day) during either a main meal or snack time. Giving it in small increments helps a lot because it's pretty sweet and upsets her belly if she drinks too much a once. I hope this helps someone!

Do not give to your child if they are allergic to fish or shellfish
They changed the recipe and now include fish oils that are a major allergen. It causes my child to have a major allergic reaction and her throat swelled up. Please do not give your child this if they have a shellfish or fish allergy. The old ingredients never had this Buyer beware.

Great for my child
My daughter loves these. She has a milk allergy,so she can't drink regular milk. Those who are saying there is vanilla in the strawberry package,it looks that way because the red eye has been removed, but it definitely tastes like strawberry. I tried to verify.

My son loves the Vanilla shake.
I struggle so much with my son and trying to get him to eat. He has texture issues and will only eat noodles, chicken nuggets and Mac and cheese and is just such a picky eater. His teacher recommended these to me and since he will only drink water and whole milk and refuses to try juice or any colored beverage, I was worried he would notice this wasn’t his usual milk so I began giving it to him before bed and he actually liked it. I’m very satisfied and hopefully this will help him with his appetite and gain some weight.

Little ones love it!
My 30 week preemie twins love their shakes! When my less than 1% 1 year olds switched from high calorie bm and formula we started adding the pediasure gain and grow shakes to help them get extra calories. They love the taste and I love that it helps provide extra calories.

LOVE
My son is autistic, so he has a texture issue. He eats grilled cheese, noodles, and chicken strips, I’ve tried everything. So I had to find a nutritional substitute and because of this milk he’s stays at a healthy weight. I would recommend this to any parent that struggles with picky eaters and the kids that just need a little extra help keeping their child healthy.

Contains tuna oil
Contains TUNA OIL. NOT SAFE FOR PEOPLE WITH FISH ALLERGY! It’s not listed as an allergen either. Scary and disappointing
1 reply from Abbott Nutrition Team team - 1 year ago
PediaSure Grow & Gain contains added DHA from tuna oil. A fish or seafood allergy is related to the protein content, not the oil. The tuna oil in PediaSure products is highly refined and it would be highly unlikely for a child to have an allergic reaction. The Food Allergy Labeling and Consumer Protection Act of 2004 excludes "any highly refined oil derived from a major food allergen". We would suggest checking with your pediatrician to see if PediaSure would be right for your child. We would like to learn more about your child's experience with PediaSure and hope you can give us a call when you have a few minutes to spare.

Has helped my daughter grow
My daughter loves all flavors except chocolate and she won't drink it. The strawberry flavor gives her to much energy I believe. It makes her very hyper.

Helpful for littles!
Our son eats like a bird and is a tall, skinny fella. Food is a big struggle that we’re in OT for, these are incredibly helpful in getting some nutrients and calories into his growing body. I also LOVE that they’re frequently on sale since they’re expensive to keep up with!

Strawberry not very strawberryee
Daughter insists they messed up and put vanilla with the strawberry label. It smells strawberry but definitely tastes different so probably won't be getting the strawberry anymore. Will try chocolate next time but kids aren't as keen on it.

PediaSure strawberry shakes are now off white in color due the removal of red 3. We left the color of the shake on the PediaSure strawberry labels pink to help differentiate the strawberry flavor from vanilla on store shelves. The strawberry formulations have “actual product color not depicted on label” callout on the front of the label. Our team would like to speak with you to learn more and see how we can help.

Love the strawberry but .....
We do pedi-sure when my daughter is refusing to eat anything. Pediatrician confirmed it was ok. She loves the strawberry flavor. She doesn't like artificial strawberry flavoring as much so I generally taste it first to confirm. Powder we haven't had a problem. Unfortunately this batch of the liquid the vanilla was labeled as strawberry. Noticed the color difference and tasted it. Vanilla, thankfully had strawberry in the fridge so it's not an issue for us. For a picky child like ours I would get powder if possible.
