Panzinorm forte 20000,10 pcs

The drug compensates insufficiency of external secretory function of the pancreas. It is a combined preparation, the action of which is caused by its constituent components. High lipase activity plays an important role in treatment of maldigestion due to pancreatic enzyme insufficiency.

Lipase breaks down fats by hydrolysis into fatty acids and glycerol and thus promotes their absorption and the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Amylase splits carbohydrates into dextrins and sugars, while protease splits proteins. It has a protective coating, due to which active enzymes are released in the small intestine, where pancreatic enzymes act.

The enzymes in pancreatin include lipase, amylase and protease to facilitate the digestion of fats, carbohydrates and proteins, which facilitates their full absorption in the small intestine.

Indications

Deficiency of external pancreatic secretory function (chronic pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, etc.).

Chronic inflammatory-dystrophic diseases of the stomach, intestines, liver, gallbladder; conditions after resection or irradiation of these organs, accompanied by disorders of digestion, flatulence, diarrhea (in combination therapy).

To improve digestion in patients with normal gastro-intestinal tract function in cases of poor nutrition, disorders of masticatory function (damage to teeth and gums, while getting used to dentures), sedentary lifestyle; prolonged immobilization.

Preparing for radiological and ultrasonic examination of the abdominal cavity.

Active ingredient

Pancreatin

Composition

1 Table contains:

Nucleus:

Active ingredient:

Pancreatin (porcine) (with enzyme activity: lipase 20,000 Units Eur.Pharm, amylase 12,000 units Eur.Pharm. and drotease 900 units Eur.Pharm.) 269.12 mg – 279.44 mg (15% excess pancreatin is due to technical losses in the manufacturing process. The 10% excess pancreatin is used to compensate for decay losses during the storage period).

Auxiliaries:

Lactose monohydrate,

Microcrystalline cellulose,

Crospovidone,

colloidal silicon dioxide,

anhydrous,

magnesium stearate.

Wrapper:

.Hypromellose, methacrylic acid and ethyl acrylate copolymer, triethyl citrate, titanium dioxide (E171), talc, simethicone emulsion, vanilla flavoring 54286 C, bergamot flavoring 54253 T, macrogol 6000, sodium carmellose, polysorbate 80.

How to take, the dosage

To be taken orally, with meals. Tablets should be taken without chewing with plenty of liquid.
The dose and duration of therapy is determined individually depending on age and degree of pancreatic insufficiency.
Adults Panzinorm forte 20,000 is recommended (in the absence of other prescriptions) at the beginning of treatment, 1 tablet 3 times a day, with each main meal. It is possible to take Panzinorm forte 20 000 with a light snack. If necessary, the single dose is increased by 2 times. Average daily dose: 1-2 tablets 3 times. Before X-ray and ultrasound investigation – 2 tablets 2-3 times a day 2-3 days before the examination.
In children the drug is used by prescription. In children over 3 years old – 100 thousand units/day (in terms of lipase).

The duration of treatment can vary from a single dose or a few days (when digestion is disturbed due to errors in the diet) to several months or years (if constant replacement therapy is necessary).

Interaction

Concomitant use with pancreatin may reduce absorption of iron preparations (clinically insignificant) and folic acid.

Periodic monitoring of folate levels and/or folic acid administration is recommended. The acid-resistant coating of Panzinorm forte 20,000 tablets dissolves in the 12 duodenum.

In low pH values in the 12 duodenum pancreatin is not released. Simultaneous use of H2-histamine receptor blockers (cimetidine), hydrocarbonates, proton pump inhibitors may lead to increased effectiveness of pancreatin.

Special Instructions

Panzinorm forte 20,000 should be taken without chewing, with plenty of fluid.

In cystic fibrosis, if the necessary dose of pancreatin is exceeded (more than 10,000 units of Ph. Eur. lipase per 1 kg body weight), strictures (fibrous colonopathy) may develop in the ileocecal region and in the ascending colon. Therefore, in cystic fibrosis, the dose should be adequate to the amount of enzymes required for fat absorption, taking into account the quality and quantity of food consumed. Do not swallow the capsule of the hydrosorbent!

Impact on the ability to drive and other mechanical means: no known adverse effects on the ability to drive and operate other mechanisms.

.

Contraindications

• High sensitivity to porcine protein or other drug components
• Acute pancreatitis, exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis
• Children under 3 years (for this formulation) and children under 15 years with cystic fibrosis.

With caution: pregnancy.

.

Side effects

The digestive system (in case of prolonged use in high doses): nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain (including colic), diarrhea, constipation, perianal irritation, irritation of the oral mucosa. In cystic fibrosis, if the required pancreatin dose is exceeded (more than 10 000 units of Ph. Eur. lipase per 1 kg of body weight), strictures (fibrous colonopathy) may develop in the ileocecal region and in the ascending colon.

Allergic reactions: skin hyperemia, skin rash, skin itching, sneezing, choking, lacrimation.

Others: hyperuricemia, hyperuricosuria, folate deficiency.

.

Overdose

Symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hyperuricosuria, hyperuricemia, perianal irritation, fibrous colonopathy (in mucoviscidosis).

Treatment: drug withdrawal, hydration, symptomatic therapy.

.

Pregnancy use

Panzinorm forte 20,000 during pregnancy and lactation (breastfeeding) can be used only if the expected positive effect of therapy exceeds the possible risk due to the lack of clinical data confirming the safety of pancreatic enzymes in this category of patients.
