Hi I have lots of Creon on a script. However, my Endo told me that you can buy the exact same thing from Holland and Barratt, not sure what it is called. It is an enzyme not a drug so very safe. Ideally is to have a Faecal Elastase, specific stool test, first., to see how bad it is., pancreas.

Be sure to take the "Creon" 20 mins to half an hour before food, otherwise useless. if meal large 2 tablets. ( Hepatologist), if bad also before any snack. It is very safe, I am mostly against DIY but this is quite different.

Best wishes,

Jackie.
