Viokace contains pancrelipase, a mixture of digestive enzymes. It is a prescription medication used to treat exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI).
EPI happens when the pancreas does not make enough digestive enzymes.
Without enough enzymes, your body may have trouble breaking down food and absorbing nutrients.
Viokace may be used in people with EPI caused by conditions such as:
Viokace replaces some of the digestive enzymes that the pancreas would normally produce.
It contains:
These enzymes help your body break down food more effectively and absorb nutrients.
Viokace is a non-enteric-coated pancreatic enzyme tablet and is generally taken together with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI).
The PPI helps reduce stomach acid so the enzymes in Viokace can remain active long enough to work properly.
Viokace should be taken exactly as prescribed and with meals or snacks so the enzymes are available when food is being digested.
Viokace is taken by mouth with every meal and snack.
Take it exactly as prescribed so the enzymes are present while your food is being digested.
Swallow Viokace tablets whole.
Do not crush, chew, or hold the tablets in your mouth because this can irritate your mouth and throat and may reduce how well the medication works.
Viokace is usually taken together with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), such as omeprazole or lansoprazole.
The PPI lowers stomach acid and helps protect the pancreatic enzymes from being broken down before they can work.
Take the PPI exactly as directed by your healthcare provider.
The dose of Viokace depends on factors such as:
Your healthcare provider may adjust your dose over time.
Do not increase the number of tablets on your own. Taking more than prescribed will not make Viokace work faster and may increase the risk of side effects.
Drink enough fluids while taking Viokace unless your healthcare provider has told you to limit your fluid intake.
Good hydration can help support normal digestion and bowel function.
For the best results, take Viokace regularly and follow any diet recommendations from your healthcare provider or dietitian.
Contact your healthcare provider if you continue to have greasy stools, stomach pain, bloating, diarrhea, or unexplained weight loss, as your dose may need to be adjusted.
Viokace (Pancrealipase) is available in the following forms and strength:
Viokace is made from porcine (pig) pancreatic enzymes.
Do not take Viokace if you have had a serious allergic reaction to pork proteins or pancrelipase.
Seek emergency medical attention if you develop:
High doses of pancreatic enzymes have been linked to a rare condition called fibrosing colonopathy, which can cause narrowing of the intestines.
The risk may be higher in people who already have:
Contact your healthcare provider if you develop severe abdominal pain, bloating, vomiting, or difficulty passing stool.
Viokace can increase uric acid levels in the blood or urine.
Use extra caution if you have:
Your healthcare provider may monitor your uric acid levels if you are at increased risk.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have kidney disease.
Higher uric acid levels may increase the risk of kidney problems in some people, especially when large doses of pancreatic enzymes are used.
Do not crush, chew, or hold Viokace tablets in your mouth.
The enzymes can irritate the lining of your mouth and throat.
Swallow the tablets whole with enough liquid.
Viokace is a non-enteric-coated pancreatic enzyme tablet, so it is normally prescribed together with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI).
The PPI lowers stomach acid and helps protect the enzymes from breaking down before they can work.
Take both medications exactly as directed by your healthcare provider.
Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use.
Some medicines may affect digestion or stomach acidity and could change how well pancreatic enzyme therapy works.
Your healthcare provider or pharmacist can check for important interactions.
Do not take more Viokace than prescribed.
Very high doses of pancreatic enzymes can increase the risk of serious intestinal problems and high uric acid levels.
Your healthcare provider will choose the dose based on your body weight, diet, symptoms, and response to treatment.
Contact your healthcare provider if you develop severe abdominal pain, repeated vomiting, constipation, worsening digestive symptoms, signs of gout, or symptoms of an allergic reaction.
Seek emergency medical attention for difficulty breathing, severe swelling, or other signs of a serious allergic reaction.
Store Viokace at room temperature in a dry place away from excess heat and moisture. Keep the bottle tightly closed and store the medication out of the reach of children and pets.
Viokace should be taken with meals and snacks. If you forget to take a dose with food, skip that dose and take your usual dose with your next meal or snack. Do not take an extra dose to make up for the missed one.
Viokace works while food is being digested. When you take it with a meal or snack, the pancreatic enzymes help break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates from that food. You may notice an improvement in symptoms such as greasy stools, bloating, or digestive discomfort after treatment begins, but the timing can vary from person to person. Contact your healthcare provider if your digestive symptoms do not improve, as your dose may need to be adjusted.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Pancrelipase enzymes mainly work inside the digestive tract and are not expected to be absorbed into the bloodstream in significant amounts. Your healthcare provider will consider your need for pancreatic enzyme replacement and your overall health before recommending treatment during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
