Kreon 25000IU 100 Capsules

KREON 25000IU 100 CAPSULES PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Kreon 25000 iU is a prescription medication used to treat low levels of pancreatic enzymes in the body, a condition known as exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). EPI is a condition where the pancreas does not produce enough enzymes to digest food properly, leading to malnutrition, weight loss, and other symptoms. Kreon contains the active ingredient pancrelipase, which is a type of enzyme that helps to break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates in the digestive system.

Kreon 25000 iU is taken orally, typically before or with meals and snacks. The dose and duration of treatment will depend on several factors, including the severity of the EPI and how well the patient responds to the medication. It is important to follow your doctor’s instructions and take Kreon exactly as prescribed.

Common side effects of Kreon may include stomach pain, bloating, and diarrhea. These side effects are usually mild and go away on their own, but if they persist or become severe, it is important to contact your doctor. Kreon may also interact with certain other medications, so it is important to inform your doctor of all the drugs you are taking.

Studies have shown that Kreon can be an effective treatment for EPI. In a clinical trial published in the journal Digestive Diseases and Sciences, Kreon was shown to improve fat absorption and reduce symptoms in patients with EPI compared to placebo. Another study published in the journal Gastroenterology found that Kreon was effective at improving weight gain, fat absorption, and quality of life in patients with EPI.
