What does it do?

Pancreatin is a mixture of digestive enzymes secreted by the pancreas, mainly including lipase, amylase, and protease. This component is used to supplement digestive enzymes in patients with digestive disorders.

Pancreatin has an enteric coating that prevents it from being destroyed by stomach acid, allowing it to reach the small intestine where it acts as an enzyme to break down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. This assists in the digestion of food and improves nutrient absorption.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

Pancreatin is a combination product of several digestive enzymes that supports the simultaneous breakdown of various nutrients, unlike single enzyme products. Its enteric coating and finely purified form make it stable in stomach acid and effective in delivering digestive enzymes.
