Clinical Pharmacology
Pancreatin- digestive enzyme agent. Compensates for the failure of the exocrine pancreatic function.
The enzymes amylase, lipase and protease, which are part of pancreatin, facilitate the digestion of carbohydrates, fats and proteins, which contributes to their more complete absorption in the small intestine.
Indications
Insufficiency of the exocrine function of the pancreas (chronic pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, etc.).
Chronic inflammatory-dystrophic diseases of the stomach, intestines, liver, gallbladder; conditions after resection or irradiation of these organs, accompanied by impaired food digestion, flatulence, diarrhea (as part of combination therapy).
To improve the digestion of food in patients with normal function of the gastrointestinal tract in cases of errors in nutrition.
Preparation for X-ray and ultrasound examination of the abdominal cavity organs.

Dosage and Administration
The dose (in terms of lipase) depends on the age and degree of insufficiency of the pancreas function. The average dose for adults - 150 000 IU / day. With complete insufficiency of the excretory function of the pancreas - 400 000 IU / day, which corresponds to the daily needs of an adult in lipase.
Maximum Daily Dose is 15 000 U / kg.
Children under the age of 1.5 years - 50 000 IU / day; over 1.5 years old - 100,000 U / day.
The duration of treatment can vary from several days (in case of a violation of the digestive process due to errors in the diet) to several months or even years (if necessary, constant replacement therapy).
Adverse reactions
From the digestive system: in some cases - diarrhea, constipation, a feeling of discomfort in the stomach, nausea. The causal relationship between the development of these reactions and the action of pancreatin has not been established, since These phenomena are symptoms of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.
Allergic reactions: in some cases - skin manifestations.
Metabolism: with prolonged use in high doses, hyperuricuricuria may develop, in excessively high doses, an increase in plasma uric acid levels.
Other: with the use of high doses of pancreatin in children, perianal irritation may occur.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity, acute pancreatitis, exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis.
Drug interactions
When used simultaneously with antacids containing calcium carbonate and / or magnesium hydroxide, it is possible to reduce the effectiveness of pancreatin.
With simultaneous use, it is theoretically possible to reduce the clinical efficacy of acarbose.
With the simultaneous use of iron preparations may decrease the absorption of iron.
Special instructions
The safety of using pancreatin during pregnancy is not well understood.
Application is possible in cases where the expected benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.
When cystic fibrosis is not recommended the use of pancreatin in high doses due to the increased risk of stricture (fibrous colonopathy). The dose should be adequate to the amount of enzymes that is necessary for the absorption of fat, taking into account the quality and quantity of food consumed.
