Type 3c diabetes (also known as Pancreatogenic diabetes) is a form of diabetes that is being researched. It involves the exocrine and digestive functions of the pancreas. Out of all the diabetics, 5–10% may actually be type 3c diabetics.

"Certain diabetes medications have been linked with an increased risk of pancreatitis. The drugs Januvia (brand name) Sitagliptin (generic name) and Byetta (brand name) Exenatide (generic name) were found to be linked with a doubled risk of pancreatitis.

These drugs are in the DPP-4 inhibitors and incretin mimetics drug classes respectively. These drugs work by suppressing glucagon release and increasing insulin release from the pancreas.

Drugs in the same drug class tend to work in similar ways and so other DPP-4 inhibitor drugs (such as Galvus (brand name) Vildagliptin (generic name) and Onglyza (brand name) Saxagliptin (generic name) and other incretin mimetics {such as Victoza (brand name) Liraglutide (generic name) and Bydureon (brand name) Exenatide extended release (generic name)} may also be found to raise the risk of pancreatitis."

The right diet is important for people with chronic pancreatitis to keep a healthy weight and get the correct nutrients. A nutritionist can help you create a diet that includes:--

* Drinking plenty of liquids

* Limiting fats

* Eating small, frequent meals (this helps reduce digestive symptoms)

* Getting enough vitamins and calcium in the diet, or as extra supplements

* Limiting caffeine

Consult an Endocrinologist.
