Hi Charity,

when you say the child can’t tolerate the F75, I assume that this just means he refuses it as you describe. In that case insert a nasogastric tube and feed the appropriate amount of F75 for severe oedema cases according to the normal schedule.

Hi Paul,

Thank you for the reply but because it's a small facility we don't have nastoligic tubes is there no other option.

Hi Charity,

Can you please write to me at my email address?

Hola Caridad, saludos Pablo.

Una opción válida y fácil es la administración de F75 a través de gotero, cuchara o jeringa. Espero sea de ayuda.

Hello Charity, greetings Paul,

One valid and easy option is administration of F75 by dropper, spoon or syringe. I hope this is helpful. 

Hello everyone.How do I manage a 9 months child ,Admissio weght of 3.9 kgs,who refuses to take RUTF even when mixed with porridge hence no weight gain.Am using RUTF in the transition phase.

F100 not available.Monitored the child to assertain if not taking and she vomits if forced. No weight gain ,has been in the ward for 2 weeks.Came with a history of cough. Chest X-ray is clear no TB negative.The mother wants to be discharged even after being counseled.

From Cecile Cazes:

You can try BP100 biscuits

Dear Sharleen, Is this baby breastfed?
