Vitaflo S.O.S. 20 Carbohydrate Oral Supplement

The S.O.S. 20 collection features Vitaflo's Neutral Flavor Carbohydrate Oral Supplement, a specialized emergency regimen designed to prevent metabolic decompensation in patients managing inherited metabolic disorders. Each box contains 30 single-serving packets (product 52278), providing a measured 20% carbohydrate solution that families and clinicians rely on during periods of illness, fasting, or reduced intake.

S.O.S. — Sick On Sick day — is a term that matters deeply to caregivers of children and adults with conditions like fatty acid oxidation disorders, glycogen storage disease, and other metabolic conditions where prolonged fasting can trigger dangerous energy crises. During episodes of vomiting, diarrhea, or poor appetite, the body's usual glucose supply can drop quickly. This neutral-flavor emergency formula delivers a reliable source of carbohydrate energy that helps maintain blood glucose stability when normal eating isn't possible.

The neutral taste is deliberate: it mixes easily into water without a strong flavor profile, making it more acceptable to unwell children and easier to tolerate when nausea makes flavored drinks unappealing. The pre-measured packet format takes the guesswork out of preparation during a stressful sick day, so caregivers can follow their prescribed emergency protocol accurately and consistently.

Because emergency regimen products are used under the guidance of a metabolic dietitian or physician, always prepare and dose according to your individual care plan. The 30-packet box provides enough servings to keep a supply on hand at home, at school, or when traveling, so you're never caught without the formula your protocol calls for.
