Supporting the Nutritional Management Needs of the Rare Disease Community Through Medical Foods

Pentec Health understands the critical role of medical foods tailored to individuals living with inherited metabolic disorders and other rare diseases.

Our medical foods are offered through ZOIA Pharma, a Pentec company, which has over two decades of expertise providing exceptional service to patients with Inborn Errors of Metabolism (IEMs) and other rare diseases. ZOIA Pharma provides a broad portfolio of medical foods and is the only provider in the U.S. exclusively focused on the rare disease community.

Medical foods are not ordinary. They are formulated and designed to meet specific dietary requirements that cannot be satisfied through regular diet alone and their nutrients, ingredients and proportions are individualized to each patient. These products often are available as powders, liquids and bars and can be used only under medical supervision¹, forming the cornerstone of a comprehensive management plan for various conditions or diseases.

Metabolic center clinicians can rely on Pentec’s medical food offerings for patients with inherited metabolic disorders including but not limited to phenylketonuria (PKU), homocystinuria (HCU), tyrosinemia (TYR), glutaric aciduria (GA), urea cycle disorders (UCDs) and maple syrup urine disease (MSUD).

Empowering the Rare Disease Community with Medical Food Services

We recognize that these conditions present unique challenges demanding specialized care and innovative solutions. That’s why we are dedicated to providing comprehensive services for those in the rare disease community who require medical foods as part of their care. Our services go beyond providing these important foods to include navigating the complexity of insurance coverage, product distribution and clinical support.

Pentec is committed to expanding our medical foods services to better serve patients, families and clinicians who struggle to find a reliable supplier for metabolic formula.

We provide access to a range of medical foods including brands such as Vitaflo, Abbott, Cambrooke, Nutricia and PKU GOLIKE, the first prolonged-release phenylalanine (Phe)-free medical food for the dietary management of both children and adults. This ground-breaking formula addresses common complaints about medical foods, such as unpleasant flavor, aftertaste and bad breath. It is available in convenient pre-measured packets that can be added to a variety of foods and medical food bars that can be taken on the go.

Serving as the exclusive U.S. distributor of PKU GOLIKE and other vital foods and formulas through Pentec’s ZOIA Pharma team, we are able to support the rare disease community in a way no other provider can.

We also operate an 11,000-square-foot U.S. Food and Drug Administration-registered medical food warehouse and storage facility. This allows us to serve more patients across the nation, offer more product selection and give providers peace of mind during supply shortages.

Holistic Support

Our dedication goes beyond providing medical foods. We have patients and providers covered by handling everything, including comprehensive insurance support to be sure patients get coverage and reimbursement for these vital foods, patient home delivery services and more.

Clinicians can count on us to provide patients with reliable product distribution and personal customer support.

We are an extension of families’ care teams. Our ability to support expanded coverage across Medicaid and other private insurance plans increases availability, which is vital for patient access and adherence.
