What Kind of Pancreatic Extracts To Use?

  • Conference paper
Facing the Pancreatic Dilemma

Abstract

Treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency is based on oral administration of pancreatic enzyme-containing preparations. The aim is to prevent or correct malnutrition secondary to exocrine pancreatic insufficiency through a clinically relevant reduction or normalization of faecal fat and nitrogen losses.
