An enzyme preparation that improves digestion. Pancreatic enzymes, which are part of the drug, facilitate the digestion of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, which leads to their complete absorption in the small intestine.
Creon 10,000 capsules, containing pancreatin in the form of enteric-coated minimicrospheres, quickly dissolve in the stomach, releasing hundreds of minimicrospheres. The aim of this principle is to mix the mini-microspheres with the intestinal contents and ultimately to better distribute the enzymes after their release within the intestinal contents.
When the minimicrospheres reach the small intestine, the enteric coating is destroyed (at pH>5.5), pancreatic enzymes are released with lipolytic, amylolytic and proteolytic activity, which leads to the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.
The substances obtained as a result of splitting are then either absorbed directly or subjected to further hydrolysis by intestinal enzymes.

Description of the dosage form

Bicolor hard gelatin capsules (brown opaque cap and clear colorless base).

Capsule contents: Beige enteric-soluble mini-microspheres.

pharmachologic effect

pharmachologic effect- replenishing the deficiency of pancreatic enzymes
.

Pharmacodynamics

An enzyme preparation that improves digestion. Pancreatic enzymes, which are part of the drug, facilitate the breakdown of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, which leads to their complete absorption in the small intestine. Capsules containing enteric-coated mini-microspheres dissolve rapidly in the stomach, releasing hundreds of mini-microspheres. The aim of the multi-unit dose principle is to mix the mini-microspheres with the intestinal contents, and ultimately a better distribution of the enzymes after their release within the intestinal contents.

Pharmacokinetics

When the mini-microspheres reach the small intestine, the enteric coating breaks down, releasing enzymes with lipolytic, amylolytic, and proteolytic activities that promote the breakdown of fats, starches, and proteins.

Indications for Creon ® 10000

replacement therapy for insufficiency of exocrine pancreatic function in cystic fibrosis, chronic pancreatitis, pancreatectomy, pancreatic cancer, duct obstruction (pancreatic ducts or common bile duct) due to neoplasm, Shwachman-Diamond syndrome, in old age;

symptomatic therapy of digestive disorders with partial resection of the stomach (Billroth-I / II), total gastrectomy; after cholecystectomy, with duodeno- and gastrostasis, biliary obstruction, cholestatic hepatitis, cirrhosis of the liver, pathology of the terminal part of the small intestine, excessive bacterial growth in the small intestine.

Contraindications

increased individual sensitivity to the components of the drug;

acute pancreatitis;

exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis.

Use during pregnancy and lactation

Due to the lack of sufficient data on the safety of the use of pancreatic enzymes in women during pregnancy and lactation, the drug should be prescribed to pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers only if the expected benefit to the mother outweighs the possible risk to the fetus or child.

Side effects

Allergic reactions, rarely - diarrhea, constipation, discomfort in the stomach, nausea.

Interaction

There are no reports of interaction with other drugs.

Dosage and administration

inside. The dose is selected individually depending on the severity of the disease and the composition of the diet. It is recommended to take 1/3 or 1/2 of a single dose at the beginning of a meal, the rest with a meal. When swallowing is difficult (for example, in young children or elderly patients), the capsules are carefully opened, and the mini-microspheres are added to liquid food that does not require chewing, or taken with liquid. Any mixture of Mini Microspheres with food or liquid should not be stored and should be taken immediately after preparation. Crushing or chewing mini-microspheres, as well as adding them to food with a pH above 5.5, leads to the destruction of their shell, which protects against the action of gastric juice.

In cystic fibrosis, the dose depends on body weight and is at the beginning of treatment in children under 4 years old - 1000 lipase units / kg for each meal, over 4 years - 500 lipase units / kg during meals. The dose depends on the severity of the symptoms of the disease, the results of the control of steatorrhea and the maintenance of a good nutritional status. In most patients, the dose should not exceed 10,000 IU/kg/day.

In other conditions accompanied by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, the dose is set taking into account the individual characteristics of the patient (degree of indigestion, fat content in food). The dose with the main meal (breakfast, lunch and dinner) is 20,000-75,000 IU of lipase EF, while taking a light snack - 5,000-25,000 IU of lipase EF.

The usual initial dosage of Creon ® is 10,000-25,000 units of lipase EF with the main meal. To reduce steatorrhea and maintain the optimal condition of the patient, it is possible to increase the dose. According to the usual clinical practice, the patient should receive with food at least 20,000-50,000 units of lipase EF.

Overdose

Symptoms: hyperuricuria, hyperuricemia.

Treatment: drug withdrawal, symptomatic therapy.

special instructions

In patients with cystic fibrosis who received high doses of pancreatin preparations, strictures of the ileum and caecum, colitis are described. In studies by the "case-control" method, no data were obtained indicating a relationship with Creon and the occurrence of fibrosing colonopathy. As a precautionary measure to rule out colonic involvement in patients with cystic fibrosis, it is recommended that any unusual symptoms or changes in the abdominal cavity be monitored, especially if the patient is taking more than 10,000 units of lipase/kg/day.

The drug does not affect the ability to drive a car and to control machines and mechanisms.

Storage conditions for Creon ® 10000

At temperatures not exceeding 25 °C, in tightly closed packaging.

Keep out of the reach of children.

Shelf life of Creon ® 10000

enteric capsules 10,000 IU - 2 years. After opening - 3 months.

capsules 300 mg - 3 years. After opening the package - 3 months.

Do not use after the expiry date stated on the packaging.

Creon 10,000 is a drug to compensate for the lack of pancreatic enzymes.

Release form and composition

The drug is available in the form of enteric capsules: hard gelatin, with a transparent colorless body and an opaque brown cap, size No. 2; inside the capsules, light brown mini-microspheres are visible (20, 50 and 100 pieces in white polyethylene bottles with a screw cap; in a pack of cardboard one bottle and instructions for use Creon 10,000).

Composition per 1 capsule:

  • active substance: pancreatin - 150 mg (corresponds to the content of protease - 600 IU Ph.Eur., lipase - 10,000 IU Ph.Eur., amylase - 8000 IU Ph.Eur.);
  • auxiliary components: hypromellose phthalate, cetyl alcohol, macrogol 4000, dimethicone, triethyl citrate;
  • capsule body and cap: sodium lauryl sulfate, gelatin, black iron oxide dye, titanium dioxide, yellow iron oxide dye, red iron oxide dye.

Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics

Creon 10,000 is an enzymatic agent that improves the digestion of food in children and adults. As a result of the use of the drug, the severity of symptoms of enzyme deficiency is significantly reduced (the frequency and consistency of the stool changes, pain in the abdomen and flatulence disappear). Creon 10,000 enzymes facilitate the digestion of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, and this contributes to their more complete absorption in the small intestine.

Pork pancreatin is contained in capsules of the drug in the form of minimicrospheres, which are coated with an acid-resistant shell. After dissolution of the capsules in the stomach, hundreds of minimicrospheres are released. Together with food, they enter the intestine, thoroughly mixed with intestinal contents, and then reach the small intestine, where the enteric membrane is rapidly destroyed. The released enzymes actively break down proteins, carbohydrates and fats. Then the resulting substances are absorbed directly or broken down by intestinal enzymes into smaller units.

Pharmacokinetics

Classical studies of the pharmacokinetics of the drug have not been conducted, since pancreatic enzymes exert their therapeutic effect directly in the lumen of the small intestine before absorption. According to the chemical structure, these are proteins that break down in the gastrointestinal tract to amino acids and peptides, in the form of which they are absorbed into the intestinal wall.

Indications for use

Creon 10,000 is used in children and adults as a replacement therapy for pancreatic enzyme deficiency resulting from a decrease in its enzyme activity due to a violation of the production of pancreatic enzymes, regulation of their secretion, delivery to the site of action and also increased destruction in the intestine. These disorders are caused by various diseases of the digestive tract and most often occur in chronic pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, pancreatic cancer, Shwachman-Diamond syndrome, obstruction of the common bile duct or pancreatic ducts, after complete or partial removal of the stomach, after surgery on the pancreas, with conditions after attacks of acute pancreatitis and subsequent refeeding.

Contraindications

Creon 10,000 is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to pancreatin or any auxiliary component of the drug.

Creon 10,000: instructions for use (dosage and method)

Creon 10,000 capsules are taken orally, without chewing or breaking, with water or other liquid.

Doses are selected individually (taking into account the composition of the diet and the severity of the disease). The drug should be taken during or after a meal, at every meal, even with a light snack.

It is not always possible for young children or elderly patients to swallow the capsule whole. In such cases, it is opened and the contents are added to soft foods or drinks with a sour taste (yogurt, fruit juice, applesauce). The pH of the liquid or food should be less than 5.5. The prepared mixture of minimicrospheres with a drink or liquid is not subject to storage and must be taken immediately after mixing.

Chewing capsules or using a liquid or food with a pH level greater than 5.5 to mix with the minimicrospheres may result in disruption of the enteric coating and early release of enzymes in the oral cavity. As a result, the effectiveness of the drug is reduced, and the mucous membranes of the oral cavity are irritated.

Patients should receive sufficient fluids, especially when the need for it increases. Otherwise, constipation may occur or increase.

In cystic fibrosis, the dose of Creon 10,000 depends on the patient's body weight. Children under 4 years of age at the beginning of therapy are prescribed 1000 lipase units per kg of body weight at each meal. For children over 4 years of age and adults, the initial dose is 500 lipase units per kg of body weight during each meal. In the future, the dose of the drug is increased, taking into account the severity of the symptoms of the disease, controlling steatorrhea and maintaining an adequate nutritional status. As a rule, the daily dose does not exceed 10,000 lipase units per kg of body weight or 4,000 lipase units per g of fat consumed.

In other conditions with pancreatic enzyme deficiency, the dose of Creon 10,000 is set individually, taking into account the fat content in the meal and the degree of indigestion. At the main meal, the dose of pancreatin is 25,000-80,000 IU of lipase, during or after a light snack - 1/2 of an individual dose.

Side effects

  • digestive system: very often - abdominal pain; often - vomiting, nausea, bloating, diarrhea or constipation; with an unknown frequency - fibrosing colonopathy (in patients with cystic fibrosis who received high doses of pancreatin);
  • immune system: with an unknown frequency - anaphylactic reactions (mainly from the skin);
  • skin and subcutaneous fat: infrequently - rash; with an unknown frequency - urticaria, pruritus.

Overdose

In case of an overdose of the drug in the blood and urine, an increased content of uric acid is observed.

Creon 10,000 should be discontinued and symptomatic treatment initiated.

special instructions

If during therapy with the drug the patient develops changes in the abdominal cavity or other unusual symptoms, a medical examination should be carried out to exclude strictures of the caecum, ileum and colon. The likelihood of fibrosing colonopathy is increased in patients with cystic fibrosis receiving Creon 10,000 at a daily dose of 10,000 IU of lipase or more.

Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and complex mechanisms

The effect of the drug on the ability to drive vehicles is insignificant or absent.

Use during pregnancy and lactation

Experimental studies have shown that pancreatin is not teratogenic. Despite this, the use of the drug during pregnancy is possible only in exceptional cases, when the benefit of treatment for the mother outweighs the possible risk to the fetus.

Application in childhood

In children, Creon 10,000 capsules are used according to indications, adhering to the recommended dosing regimen. The high activity of lipase, which is contained in pancreatin, increases the risk of constipation in children.

drug interaction

The effectiveness of pancreatin may be reduced in combination with antacids containing magnesium hydroxide and/or calcium carbonate.

Creon 10,000 may reduce iron absorption. Theoretically, it is possible to reduce the effectiveness of acarbose under the action of pancreatin.

Analogues

Creon 10,000 analogues are: Creon 25,000, Creon 40,000, Mezim 20,000, Mezim forte 10,000, Pangrol 25,000, Gastenorm forte 10,000, Gastenorm forte, Penzital, Pancreatin, PanziKam, Micrasim, Creon Micro, Pancreazim, Pancreatin - LekT, Mezim forte, Pancreatin forte, Ermital, Panzim forte, Enzistal-P, etc.

Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics

An enzyme preparation that improves digestion. Pancreatic enzymes, which are part of the drug, facilitate the breakdown of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, which leads to their complete absorption in the small intestine.

Creon ® 10000 contains porcine pancreatin in the form of mini-microspheres coated with an enteric (acid-resistant) shell in gelatin capsules. Capsules quickly dissolve in the stomach, releasing hundreds of mini-microspheres. This principle is designed to thoroughly mix the mini-microspheres with the intestinal contents, and ultimately to better distribute the enzymes after they are released within the intestinal contents. When the minimicrospheres reach the small intestine, the enteric coating is rapidly destroyed (at pH > 5.5), enzymes with lipolytic, amylolytic and proteolytic activity are released, leading to the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and proteins. The substances obtained as a result of splitting are then either absorbed directly or subjected to further hydrolysis by intestinal enzymes.

Pharmacokinetics

In animal studies, the absence of absorption of intact (non-digested) enzymes has been demonstrated, as a result of which classical pharmacokinetic studies have not been conducted. Preparations containing pancreatic enzymes do not require absorption to exert their effects. On the contrary, the therapeutic activity of these drugs is fully realized in the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract. They are proteins in their chemical structure and therefore undergo proteolytic cleavage as they pass through the gastrointestinal tract until they are absorbed as peptides and amino acids.

Indications for use

Replacement therapy for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in children and adults. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency is associated with a variety of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and is most common in:

cystic fibrosis,

chronic pancreatitis,

After pancreatic surgery,

After gastrectomy,

pancreatic cancer,

Partial resection of the stomach (for example, Billroth II),

Obstruction of the ducts of the pancreas or common bile duct (for example, due to a neoplasm),

Shwachman-Diamond syndrome.

To avoid complications, use only after consulting a doctor.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to pancreatin of porcine origin or to one of the excipients,

acute pancreatitis,

Exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis.

Use during pregnancy and during breastfeeding

Pregnancy

Clinical data on the treatment of pregnant women with drugs containing pancreatic enzymes are not available. In animal studies, no absorption of porcine pancreatic enzymes has been detected, so toxic effects on reproductive function and fetal development are not expected.

The drug should be prescribed to pregnant women with caution if the intended benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus. breastfeeding period

Based on animal studies, during which there was no systematic negative effect of pancreatic enzymes, no harmful effect of the drug on the nursing child through breast milk is expected.

You can take pancreatic enzymes while breastfeeding.

If necessary, during pregnancy or lactation, the drug should be taken in doses sufficient to maintain an adequate nutritional status.

Dosage and administration

Doses of the drug are selected individually depending on the severity of the disease and the composition of the diet.

Capsules should be taken during or immediately after each meal (including snacks), swallowed whole, not broken or chewed, with plenty of liquid.

When swallowing is difficult (for example, in young children or elderly patients), the capsules are carefully opened, and the minimicrospheres are added to a liquid food that does not require chewing and has a sour taste, such as applesauce or fruit juice (pH< 5,5). Не рекомендуется добавлять содержимое капсул в горячую пищу. Любая смесь минимикросфер с пищей или жидкостью не подлежит хранению, и ее следует принимать сразу же после приготовления.

It is important to ensure sufficient continuous fluid intake by the patient, especially with increased fluid loss. Inadequate fluid intake can lead to or worsen constipation.

Dose for Adults and Children with Cystic Fibrosis

The dose depends on body weight and should be at the beginning of treatment 1000 lipase units / kg at each meal for children under four years of age, and 500 lipase units / kg at mealtime for children over four years of age.

The dose should be determined depending on the severity of the symptoms of the disease, the results of the control of steatorrhea and the maintenance of an adequate nutritional status.

In most patients, the dose should remain less than or not exceed 10,000 lipase units/kg body weight per day or 4,000 lipase units/g fat intake.

Dose for other conditions associated with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency

The dose should be determined taking into account the individual characteristics of the patient, which include the degree of indigestion and the fat content of the food. The dose required by the patient along with the main meal varies from 25,000 to 80,000 IU of lipase, and while taking a light snack, half the individual dose.

Side effects

Gastrointestinal disorders

Often (> 1/100,<1/10): тошнота, рвота, запор и вздутие живота.

Gastrointestinal disorders are associated mainly with the underlying disease. The incidence of the following adverse reactions was lower or similar to placebo: diarrhea (often, >1/100,<1/10), боли в области живота (очень часто, >1/10).

Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders Uncommon (>1/1000,<1/100): сыпь. Частота неизвестна: зуд, крапивница. Immune System Disorders

Frequency unknown: hypersensitivity (anaphylactic reactions). Allergic reactions were observed mainly from the skin, but other manifestations of allergy were also noted. Reports of these side effects were received during the period of post-marketing use and were of a spontaneous nature. The available data are insufficient to accurately estimate the incidence of cases.

Overdose

Symptoms: hyperuricosuria and hyperuricemia. Treatment: drug withdrawal, symptomatic therapy.

Interaction with other drugs

Interaction studies have not been conducted.

special instructions

In patients with cystic fibrosis who received high doses of pancreatin preparations, strictures of the ileum, caecum, and large intestine (fibrosing colonopathy) have been described. In studies conducted using the case-control method, no data were obtained indicating a relationship between the occurrence of fibrosing colonopathy and the use of the drug Creon® 10000. As a precautionary measure, if unusual symptoms or changes in the abdominal cavity appear, a medical examination is necessary to rule out fibrosing colonopathy, especially in patients who take the drug at a dose of more than 10,000 lipase units / kg per day.

Like all currently used preparations of porcine pancreatin, Creon® 10000 is produced from the pancreatic tissue of pigs specially bred for human consumption. Although the risk of transmission of an infectious agent to humans has been minimized by screening and inactivation of certain viruses during the manufacturing process, there is a theoretical risk of transmission of a viral disease, including diseases caused by new or unknown viruses. The presence of swine viruses that can infect humans cannot be completely ruled out.

pharmachologic effect

An enzyme preparation that improves digestion. Pancreatic enzymes, which are part of the drug, facilitate the digestion of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, which leads to their complete absorption in the small intestine.

Creon® 10,000 capsules, containing pancreatin in the form of enteric-coated minimicrospheres, rapidly dissolve in the stomach, releasing hundreds of minimicrospheres. The aim of this principle is to mix the mini-microspheres with the intestinal contents and ultimately to better distribute the enzymes after their release within the intestinal contents.

When the minimicrospheres reach the small intestine, the enteric coating breaks down (at pH>5.5), pancreatic enzymes are released with lipolytic, amylolytic and proteolytic activity, resulting in the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.

The substances obtained as a result of splitting are then either absorbed directly or subjected to further hydrolysis by intestinal enzymes.

Pharmacokinetics

In animal studies, no absorption of whole (non-digested) enzymes has been demonstrated and, as a result, classical pharmacokinetic studies have not been performed. Preparations containing pancreatic enzymes do not require absorption to exert their effects. On the contrary, the therapeutic activity of these drugs is fully realized in the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract. Moreover, they are proteins in their chemical structure and, therefore, during the passage through the gastrointestinal tract, they undergo proteolytic cleavage until they are absorbed in the form of peptides and amino acids.

CREON 10,000: DOSAGE

The drug is taken orally. The dose is determined individually, depending on the severity of the disease and the composition of the diet.

Capsules should be taken during or immediately after each meal (including snacks), swallowed whole, not broken or chewed, with plenty of liquid.

When swallowing is difficult (for example, in young children or elderly patients), the capsules are carefully opened, and the mini-microspheres are added to a liquid food that does not require chewing and has a sour taste, such as applesauce or fruit juice (pH

It is important to ensure sufficient continuous fluid intake by the patient, especially with increased fluid loss. Inadequate fluid intake can lead to or worsen constipation.

In cystic fibrosis, the initial dose of lipase for children under 4 years of age is 1000 IU / kg of body weight for each meal, for children over the age of 4 years and adults - 500 IU / kg of body weight for each meal. The dose should be determined depending on the severity of the symptoms of the disease, the results of the control of steatorrhea and the maintenance of good nutritional status. In most patients, the dose of lipase should not exceed 10,000 U/kg body weight/day or 4,000 U/g fat intake.

In other conditions accompanied by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, the dose is set taking into account the degree of insufficiency of digestion and the fat content in food. The dose of lipase required by the patient along with the main meal varies from 25,000 to 80,000 IU Ph. Eur., while taking a light snack - half of the individual dose.

Overdose

Symptoms: hyperuricuria and hyperuricemia.

Treatment: drug withdrawal, symptomatic therapy.

drug interaction

Studies on the interaction of the drug Creon® 10,000 with other drugs have not been conducted.

CREON 10 000:
Pregnancy and lactation

There are no clinical data on the use of drugs containing pancreatic enzymes during pregnancy. Prescribe the drug with caution if the intended benefit to the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.

In the course of experimental studies, no absorption of pancreatic enzymes of porcine origin was detected, therefore, toxic effects on reproductive function and fetal development are not expected.

During lactation (breastfeeding), you can take pancreatic enzymes, incl. preparation Creon® 10 000.

In the course of experimental studies, no systemic negative effect of pancreatic enzymes was detected, therefore, no harmful effect of the drug on an infant is expected when breastfeeding.

If necessary, during pregnancy or during lactation, the drug should be taken in doses sufficient to maintain an adequate nutritional status.

CREON 10 000: SIDE EFFECTS

From the digestive system: often (≥1 / 100,

Allergic reactions: rarely (≥ 1/1000,

Terms and conditions of storage

The drug should be stored out of the reach of children at a temperature not exceeding 25 ° C in a tightly closed package. Shelf life - 2 years.

After the first opening of the vial, the shelf life is 3 months.

Indications

Replacement therapy for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in children and adults, which is most common in the following conditions:

  • cystic fibrosis;
  • chronic pancreatitis;
  • condition after surgery on the pancreas;
  • after gastrectomy;
  • pancreas cancer;
  • partial resection of the stomach (for example,
  • Billroth II);
  • obstruction of the ducts of the pancreas or common bile duct (for example,
  • due to neoplasm);
  • Shwachman-Diamond syndrome.

Contraindications

  • acute pancreatitis;
  • exacerbation of chronic pancreatitis;
  • hypersensitivity to pancreatin of porcine origin and other components of the drug.

special instructions

In patients with cystic fibrosis treated with high doses of pancreatin preparations, strictures of the ileum and caecum and large intestine (fibrosing colonopathy) have been described. In studies conducted using the case-control method, no data were obtained indicating a relationship between the occurrence of fibrosing colonopathy and the use of Creon® 10,000. As a precautionary measure, if unusual symptoms or changes in the abdominal cavity appear, a medical examination is necessary to rule out fibrosing colonopathy, especially in patients who take the drug at a dose (based on lipase) of more than 10,000 IU / kg body weight / day.

Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and control mechanisms

The use of the drug Creon® 10,000 does not affect or has a slight effect on the ability to drive a car and mechanisms.
