Pancreatin

Is a digestive enzyme supplement containing enzymes naturally produced by the pancreas.

Pancreatin is used to treat pancreatic insufficiency, a condition where the pancreas does not produce enough digestive enzymes.

It helps digest food, especially fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, in individuals with cystic fibrosis, chronic pancreatitis, or after pancreatic surgery.

It may also be used to relieve symptoms of indigestion, bloating, and gas in people with impaired digestion.

Panzynorm N Tab (Pancreatin) contains three main enzymes: lipase, protease, and amylase. These enzymes break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates in the food we eat, aiding digestion and nutrient absorption.

Pancreatin should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Keep it out of reach of children.

The dosage of pancreatin varies depending on the individual's condition, age, and severity of symptoms.

It is typically taken with meals or snacks, swallowed whole with a glass of water.

Follow your doctor's instructions carefully and never exceed the recommended dose.

Do not crush or chew the tablets, as this can inactivate the enzymes.

Common side effects may include nausea, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, or constipation.

Rarely, some individuals may experience allergic reactions, such as rash, itching, or swelling.

Alcohol Consumption

It is generally safe to consume alcohol while taking pancreatin, but excessive alcohol consumption can worsen digestive problems.



While Driving or operating Machinery

Pancreatin does not typically affect mental alertness or physical coordination. However, if you experience side effects like dizziness or drowsiness, avoid driving or operating machinery.



Pregnant & Breastfeeding Women

It is generally considered safe for pregnant and breastfeeding women to take pancreatin under a doctor's supervision. Always discuss your medical history and any concerns with your doctor.



Children

Pancreatin is safe for children under a doctor's supervision. The dosage will be adjusted based on the child's age and weight.
