Creon 25 is available in capsule form and should be taken by mouth with meals and snacks as directed by your doctor. The capsule should be swallowed whole, without crushing or chewing it, and should not be kept in the mouth to avoid irritation.
If swallowing is difficult, the capsule may be opened and the contents mixed with a small amount of soft food or liquid that does not require chewing, such as room-temperature applesauce. However, avoid mixing the contents with alkaline foods or liquids such as milk, ice cream, or tea, and consult your doctor or pharmacist for a list of foods to avoid. Swallow the mixture immediately without chewing and drink a glass of water or juice to ensure it is swallowed completely. Do not store the medication mixture for later.
Dosage of Creon 25 is based on your medical condition, diet, weight, and response to treatment, and you should not take more capsules in a day than prescribed by your doctor. Drinking plenty of fluids while taking Creon 25 capsules is encouraged, unless otherwise instructed by your doctor.
For the medication to be most effective, use it regularly with every meal or snack recommended by your doctor. If you are following a special diet as advised by your doctor, comply with the diet to achieve the maximum benefit from the medication.
