Resupply update 

Due to events in the Red Sea, Nutricia, like other companies, has rerouted ships to avoid travelling through the Suez Canal, resulting in delays on shipments travelling from Europe to New Zealand.

The change in shipping route by global manufacturers is also causing congestion and delays at the Singapore port.

Nutricia is closely monitoring the situation and making decisions where necessary to reduce the impact on local supply. 

Information for prescribers

Please do not make prescriptions brand and/or flavour specific. This will allow flexibility for pharmacists when dispensing.
