What is Creon used for?
Creon (Pancreatic Enzyme)
This particular medicine helps you to digest fats, proteins, and sugar. This medicine contains a combination of the substances, namely, lipase, protease, and amylase. These particular enzymes are produced by the pancreas, and they help in digestion. The lack of sufficient enzymes in your body could be due to a number of factors. These include cystic fibrosis, chronic inflammation of the pancreas, or the blocking of the pancreatic duct. The lack of enzymes in the body due to these factors can then be compensated by taking Creon.
This pancreatic enzyme supplement is easily available online. You can buy Creon medication from Canada Pharmacy online.
