Only 10% of premature infants in the United States have access to life-saving donor milk.
Human milk-based nutrition is ideal for at-risk infants. Even so, hospitals struggle to obtain enough donor milk to feed NICU patients. Reasons for this are often transportation and storage, which can become costly due to freezing requirements.
The solution is to eliminate the need for freezing and thus increase human milk access to every baby, which is the Medolac founding mission. Medolac human milk products utilize proven food-processing methods to produce the only sterile human milk-based nutrition that is shelf-stable at room temperature. No freezing necessary. No frozen transportation or distribution issues. No defrosting time needed at the bedside.
