PurathickNatural Thickener, 4.4 oz, Thickens Hot and Cold Liquids for People with Dysphagia

My son has used this since he was a year old (he is now 5). Before this, he used the gelmix. It is easy to use, tasteless, goes down smooth. We use it to thicken flavored water for him because thickening regular water doesn't taste good. It gets clumpy sometimes but nothing too bad. We love it. We do wish an HSA or Medicaid could pay for it. But we love this product.

We have found that buying this product on amazing you got more value for your money, as it’s more continent and the quality is just as good as purchasing at our local children’s pharmacy a hour away.

We ordered this on a pinch as our daughter is on thickened liquids and the usual brand was out. This was significantly cheaper and worked faster- not requiring the liquid to be hot I order to work.

Es una gran ayuda para ayudar a alimentar a quien se le dificulta

My son has been on thickened liquids for years and until now I have absolutely hated all our options. This has a light flavor when mixed with only water, essence of rice water… which is actually refreshing. Blends well with all juices, milks and a great for popsicles!

I use this for my one year old and it significantly helps her from choking because she can’t swallow thin liquids. It’s best to use a mixer to dissolve the power completely inside

The media could not be loaded. I have been trying to figure out the best way to thicken my son’s liquids that didn’t include so much gums and toxic thickeners, this is what I ended up with. I found the best method was to use a frother AS I POURED the thickener in the milk. This made a huge difference in clumps! The video shows how I do it, and then I worked with my son’s medical team to find the best way to feed it to him as well.

My daughter has been using purathick for a year now and it’s been a life saver! (Literally, she chokes on thin liquids) my last two purchases in a row have been completely wrong. They sent me “gelmix” instead. The measurements, color and consistency is different. You need double the amount of scoops because gelmix is meant for smaller quantities like a baby bottle. My daughter won’t take it. I’m running out and will have to order somewhere else. I’m very disappointed.
