PancrePlus Powder for Dogs & Cats

Description

Description PancrePlus is prescribed as a digestive aid and replacement therapy for those who have exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). EPI makes it hard or impossible for the body to digest proteins, carbohydrates and fats because the pancreas isn't producing the enzymes it should. This powder should be added to regular meals to aid in normal digestion. Uses For use as a digestive aid in replacement therapy where digestion of protein, carbohydrate and fat is inadequate due to exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Possible Side Effects Some pets may exhibit reactions, such as allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; swelling of the lips, tongue or face; hives), diarrhea or loose stool. If you observe any of these side effects, contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. Oral and/or tongue ulceration may occur at higher doses. Ulcers typically resolve with a reduction in dose or slight dilution of product with water.
