Questions

Is Glucerna WIC approved in every state?

No single answer: Glucerna items are on 4 of the 14 lists we compare and on none of the lists for California, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Washington, ITCA (Arizona tribal) (as of each list's date). States pick their own brands and sizes, so check the product table for your state's column.

Which Glucerna products are on the most lists?

Glucerna Shake Chocolate Delight 6pk/8oz (4 of 14); Glucerna Shake Strawberries & Cream 6pk/8oz (4 of 14); Glucerna Shake Vanilla 6pk/8oz (4 of 14).

My state is California. Can I still buy Glucerna?

A product that is not on your state's list will usually be declined at the register, but lists change: New York's list itself says "There may be eligible products that are not on this list." Look for the WIC shelf tag, scan it in your state's WIC shopping app, or ask your WIC clinic.

Why does one Glucerna size work and another not?

WIC lists authorize exact barcodes. The same medical foods & shakes in a different size, pack or flavor has a different UPC, and many states allow only certain container sizes. Compare the UPC on your package with the UPC shown here.
