Creon 10 (active ingredient: pancreatic enzyme) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Pancreatic Insufficiency: Creon 10 is used to manage pancreatic insufficiency, a condition in which the pancreas does not produce enough digestive enzymes, often due to conditions such as cystic fibrosis, chronic pancreatitis, or pancreatic cancer.
  2. Malabsorption Syndromes: It is indicated for the treatment of malabsorption syndromes where there is difficulty in digesting and absorbing nutrients from food due to enzyme deficiencies.

Creon 10 belongs to a class of drugs known as pancreatic enzyme replacements, which work by providing the necessary digestive enzymes (lipase, protease, and amylase) to aid in the digestion and absorption of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates.

Creon 10 comes in the form of delayed-release capsules to be taken orally, usually once a day. The capsules should be swallowed whole with enough liquid to ensure they are fully swallowed and should not be crushed or chewed. Follow the dosage instructions provided by a healthcare professional, and the recommended dose varies depending on the individual’s needs and the severity of their EPI.

Creon 10 should be stored at room temperature and in a dry place and kept out of reach of children. Like all medications, Creon 10 may interact with certain other medications, and inform a healthcare professional of all medications that are currently being taken.

Note that Creon 10 may interact with other medications and inform a healthcare professional of all medications that are currently being taken. Overall, a healthcare professional should closely monitor the use of Creon 10, and it should only be used as prescribed.

Although it has never been reported, it may be possible for a person to get a viral infection from taking pancreatic enzyme products that come from pigs.
