    Pancrex V Capsules 300, a pancreatic enzyme supplement, is used to compensate for reduced intestinal enzyme activity in pancreatic deficiency states.

    Pancrex V Capsules 300 – Pancreatic Enzyme Supplements, 300 Capsules

    Pancrex V Capsules 300 offer a powerful dose of pancreatic enzyme supplements, a digestive enzyme that helps the body to break down and absorb fats, proteins, and starches. Those who suffer from conditions like cystic fibrosis or chronic pancreatitis can benefit from increased pancreatin levels, as can those who have had their pancreas removed. Pancreatin also supports a healthy appetite by aiding in the digestion of sugars. If you are looking for superior digestive support, Pancrex V Capsules 300 are an excellent choice.

    Pancrex V Capsules may also be used when the stomach has been removed, as an aid to digestion.
    These capsules may be used when small amounts of Pancrex are required, such as in younger children. The capsules may also be used in patients who cannot easily dissolve the special coating of other pancreatin preparations.
    The pancreatin in Pancrex V Capsules is derived from pancreases of pigs.

    What is Chronic pancreatitis?

    Chronic pancreatitis is a condition where the pancreas has become permanently damaged from inflammation and stops working properly.

    The pancreas is a small organ, located behind the stomach, that helps with digestion.

    Chronic pancreatitis can affect people of any age, but it usually develops between the ages of 30 and 40 as a result of heavy drinking over many years. It’s more common in men.

    It’s different from acute pancreatitis, where the inflammation is only short term.

    Most people with chronic pancreatitis have had 1 or more attacks of acute pancreatitis.

    The most common symptom of chronic pancreatitis is repeated episodes of severe pain in your tummy (abdomen).

    The pain usually develops in the middle or left side of your tummy and can move along your back.

    It’s been described as a burning or shooting pain that comes and goes, but may last for several hours or days.

    Although the pain sometimes comes on after eating a meal, there’s often no trigger. Some people might feel sick and vomit.

    As the condition progresses, the painful episodes may become more frequent and severe.

    Eventually, a constant dull pain can develop in your tummy, between episodes of severe pain.

    This is most common in people who continue to drink alcohol after being diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis.

    Some people who stop drinking alcohol and stop smoking may find the pain is less severe.

    Other symptoms develop as the damage to the pancreas progresses and it becomes unable to produce digestive juices, which help to break down food.

    The absence of digestive juices means it’s harder to break down fats and some proteins. This can cause your poo to become very smelly and greasy, and make it difficult to flush down the toilet.

    The pancreas usually only loses these functions many years after the first symptoms started.

    How to use

    How to take Pancrex V 300mg Capsules

    Dosage should be adjusted according to the needs of the individual patient and the amount and type of food consumed.

    The following dosage ranges provide a suitable basis for adjustment.

    Infants: the contents of 1 – 2 capsules mixed with feeds.

    Older Children and Adults: the contents of 2 – 6 capsules with each snack or meal. The capsules may be swallowed.

    The capsules may provide a suitable alternative to the enteric coated presentations in cases where the pH of the duodenum is not sufficiently alkaline to dissolve the enteric coat.

    Capsules provide a simple and convenient method of dose measurement of pancreatin for administration to younger children requiring a low dose.

    Warning

    Special warnings and precautions for use

    It is possible that some irritation of the skin of the mouth may occur if capsules are chewed or the contents retained in the mouth. Irritation of the anus may also occur. A barrier cream may prevent this local irritation.

    Allergic/asthmatic reactions have occasionally occurred on handling the capsule contents.

    If the capsule contents are mixed with liquids or feeds the resulting mixture should not be allowed to stand for more than one hour prior to use.

    Side Effects

    Undesirable effects

    Rare cases of hyperuricosuria and hyperuricaemia have been reported when extremely high doses of pancreatin have been taken.

    Strictures of the ileo-caecum and large bowel, and colitis, have been reported in children with cystic fibrosis taking high doses of pancreatic enzyme supplements. To date Pancrex and Pancrex V 300mg capsules presentations have not been implicated in the development of colonic damage. However unusual abdominal symptoms or changes in abdominal symptoms should be reviewed to exclude the possibility of colonic damage especially if the patient is taking in excess of 10,000 units/kg/day of lipase.
