Abstract
The acceptability of commercially available oral supplements has a great influence on their long‐term use by cancer patients with a poor nutritional status. This study compares short‐term and long‐term palatability of six oral supplements used widely in hospitals throughout the UK, and their effect on the nutritional intake of the patient.Keywords
