Rx Medical Food Market to Surpass US$ 26,455.7 Million Threshold

Rx Medical Food – Let Medicine Be the Food

Medical food is a category of products for dietary management or supportive therapy for specific disease or medical conditions such as pulmonary and metabolic disorders. Ingredients used in medical foods must have generally recognized as safe (GRAS) status, which is assigned to naturally found food materials. Medical food is different from nutritional food, dietary supplements, and prescription drugs. Medical food is protein-based, nutrient-based (Omega 3 fatty acids, chelated zinc, and isoflavones), and may contain minerals and vitamins such as folic acid and thiamine. These products are prescribed by physicians or taken under their supervision. The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has classified medical foods into four major categories namely, nutritional complete products, nutritionally incomplete products, formulas for metabolic disorders, and oral rehydration solutions. The U.S. FDA separately regulates medical food category under Orphan Drug Act (1988) to ensure safety of populace and curb presence of products falsely claiming to cure medical conditions. Medical food does not require premarket approval, specification as an Investigational New Drug (IND), and individual registration with the FDA. However, they are required to support all their health claims with proper laboratory and clinical studies.
