Pancreate 300 contains Pancreatin, a mixture of natural digestive enzymes including amylase, lipase, and protease, which are essential for the digestion of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It is used to help people whose pancreas does not produce enough digestive enzymes, a condition known as exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI).

Mechanism of Action
Pancreatin works by supplementing the body’s natural digestive enzymes. When taken with meals, it helps break down food into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body.

• Amylase breaks down carbohydrates into sugars

• Lipase digests fats into fatty acids and glycerol

• Protease breaks down proteins into amino acids
  This enzymatic action supports proper digestion and nutrient absorption in people with pancreatic enzyme deficiency.

  Uses
  Pancreate 300 is used for:

  • Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) caused by conditions such as chronic pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, or pancreatic cancer

  • After pancreatic surgery or removal of the pancreas

  • Steatorrhea (fatty stools) due to poor fat digestion

  • Assisting digestion in individuals with pancreatic enzyme production issues

    Adverse Effects
    Pancreatin is usually well tolerated when taken as prescribed, but some side effects may occur:

    • Abdominal discomfort, bloating, or nausea

    • Diarrhea or constipation

    • Allergic reactions, such as rash or itching, though rare

    • High doses over a long period may lead to mouth or intestinal irritation, especially in children
