1 About the drug

Creon 10 belongs to the group of enzyme preparations. It includes a complex of substances that act analogues to natural pancreatic elements. The drug is in the form of capsules, under the shell which contains exactly a certain number of enzymes. The dosage is prescribed according to the intended use, it varies depending on the volume of the active ingredient( lipase) contained. The 1 capsule of Creon 10 contains lipase in a volume of 10,000 units. Excipients are amylase, proteolytic enzymes and pancreatin. Protective film shell, covering each capsule, completely dissolves in the small intestine.

In the complex, all the components underlying the drug provide full and qualitative splitting of food products that enter the body.

Systematic use of the drug helps to normalize the digestive process and ensure the complete assimilation of nutrients contained in food. Externally, this is manifested by a fast set of body weight of the baby. The drug helps to eliminate violations in the work of the intestine, reduces to a minimum level the amount of gases in it, maximally removes intestinal colic.

The enzymes contained in the capsules are surrounded by microscopic protective formations. Thanks to this, after getting into the digestive tract, there is a momentary mixing with food and an active influence on the useful substances that have got into the body.

Components of the drug have an active effect on carbohydrates, proteins and fats, so their qualitative cleavage is carried out.

In the large intestine, the processes of fermentation of the remnants of digestible food are avoided, which prevents the appearance of effects of excessive formation of gases.

The medicine in question contains enzymes in its composition, so absorption is not necessary to reflect its effect. The therapeutic effect of the drug is clearly traced in the gastrointestinal tract. Based on the chemical structure of the drug, he is boldly regarded as a protein. That is why the passage of the drug through the gastrointestinal tract causes the processes of its proteolytic cleavage. They last until the components of the drug are completely absorbed, representing amino acids and peptides.
