How it works:
The pancreatic enzymes in PancreVed help to digest fat, protein, and sugars.

What is the most important information I should know about PancreVed:
PancreVed is a prescription medication FDA approved for veterinary use in dogs and cats. PancreVed is available as tablets containing Lipase (9,000 USP Units), Protease (57,000 USP Units) and Amylase (64,000 USP Units) as well as Vitamin A (1,000 IU), Vitamin D3 (100 IU), and Vitamin E (10 IU). For dogs give 2-3 tablets with each meal. For cats, give 1/2-1 tablet with each meal.

What is PancreVed:
PancreVed consists of enzymes naturally produced by the pancreas necessary for the digestion of food. PancreVed is used as a digestive aid and as replacement therapy for inadequate digestion due to pancreatic insufficiency. Pancreatic enzymes are derived from whole, raw pancreas of pork origin. PancreVed may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this guide.

What should I discuss with my veterinarian before giving PancreVed to my pet:
Tell your veterinarian if your pet has an allergy to pork. Tell your veterinarian if your pet is being given antacids such as Maalox, H2 blockers such as cimetidine or proton pump inhibitors such as Prilosec. Tell your veterinarian if your pet is pregnant or lactating.

How should this medication be given:
Give this medication exactly as directed by your veterinarian. If you do not understand the directions ask the pharmacist or veterinarian to explain them to you. PancreVed should be given with food. Keep this medication away from children and pets.

What happens if I miss giving a dose:
Give the missed dose as soon as you remember during the same day. However, if you don't remember until the next day, skip the dose you missed and give only the next regularly scheduled dose. Do not give a double dose of the medication.

What happens if I overdose the pet:
Seek emergency veterinary medical treatment. Symptoms of PancreVed overdose may include diarrhea, excess fat in the feces, increased appetite, and weight loss.

What should I avoid while giving PancreVed to my pet:
PancreVed should not be given to pets allergic to it, or to pets allergic to pork. The pet owner should avoid inhaling the powder as it might irritate the mouth.

What are the possible side effects of PancreVed:
If any of the following serious side effects occur, stop giving PancreVed and seek emergency veterinary medical attention; an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; swelling of the lips; tongue or face; hives). Continue giving PancreVed and talk to your veterinarian if your pet experiences diarrhea or loose stools. Other side effects may also occur. Talk to your veterinarian about any side effect that seems unusual or bothersome to the animal.

What other drugs will affect PancreVed:
Tell your veterinarian if your pet is being given antacids such as Maalox, H2 blockers such as cimetidine or proton pump inhibitors such as Prilosec. Drugs other than those listed may also interact with PancreVed. Talk to your veterinarian or pharmacist before giving any prescription or over the counter medicines.

Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI) At about 18 months old our beautiful white German Shepherd started to lose weight, was always hungry, and her stools which were like oily water. She went from about 90 pounds to 68 in about 2 months. Finally a wonderful vet sent her blood off to be tested for EPI. When the results came back it was found that she had almost zero pancreatic function. We started her on the pills at first and they did not help enough. When we started her on the powder we saw an immediate difference. We put about a tablespoon on her slightly moistened Science ID (prescription dog food for theses issues). The amount needed in the food can vary and you have to she how they do and adjust accordingly. Our dog eats 2 times a day. She is now 9 years old and is doing great still. Thanks to a great vet and this miracle enzyme powder we have our dog today. FYI - EPI is a more common disorder in German Shepherds than most other breeds. 11/08/2010
SAVED MY DOGS LIFE When my Yorkie Terrior was abput 6 months old he began difficating 10-12 times per day and would want to eat it after wards. I know discusting. He was always hungry. I only fed him 2 times per day mind you. I told one vet about this problem and he said that it was normal for some dogs to eat there you know what. I was not satified with his answer. I went to a second vet and she did blood test to determine that his pancrease was not functioning properly. Everything going in him was going out. if he did not get the help that he needed he would have died. The help was the PancreVed!!!!! What a miracle drug. My precious Yorkie is now 4 years old and still plays like a puppy. No more defficating 10-12 a day and no more wanting to eat it. This problem is very rare in small dogs so probably why first vet did not find. 07/26/2010
IT WORKS! i have been useing pancreved for my dog for almost a year and i have tried other products also the other products she would quit eating all together and then diarrea would start almost emidiatly i have found with pancreved she can use way less of it and it still works !! which saves me money and time by having to keep going to the vet with her. i love my dog and she means the world to me so just try this product if you have the digestion problems it work great but it is HARD to find a vet who gets it and it is VERY VERY expensive! but i can make one 4 oz powder can last me a month sometimes longer because of how well it works!!! 03/18/2010
Lifesaver Same as everyone else here we thought my poor dog was a goner. She is like one of our children. At the age of 2 she went from being at her peak of fitness, health and vitality at 78 lbs down to a low of 46 lbs. She would eat like she was starving and have diarrhea 100% of the time and still lose weight. The vets couldn't figure out the problem for almost a year. When they did prescribe the Pancreaved we could tell immediately that it was the answer. Within one week she got her energy back and 6 months later she is back up to 78 lbs and in better health than we have ever seen her. We are grateful to have her back. If your dog has these symptoms don't hesitate to ask the vet about this problem - it may be uncommon and difficult to diagnose. 11/07/2009
A life saver Our West Highland White Terrier (Westie) was diagnosed with pancreatic insufficiency when he was about 2 1/2 years old. He had experienced significant weight loss over the three to four months prior to the diagnosis. Our vet was very patient and helpful and stepped through each other option to rule out before ruling this in. We had him tested for the insufficiency and when he was diagnosed with it - she put him on Pancreaved. He turned completely around and six months later has no ill effects from the severe illness he experienced. He will be on Pancreaved for the rest of his life. Other symptoms he experienced were severe lethargy, eating food like he was starving yet continuing to lose weight, he would eat his feces and he also had skin lesions that formed. All these symptoms started clearing up within days of him beginning the medication. He would have died from the disease - so this medicine is his lifesaver. 09/15/2009

Q: 
Our rescued Little Blue Heeler was extremely emaciated when we found her.
Unable to gain weight our vet has us trying PancreVed powder. After every meal she pants and repeatedly stretches her neck and "huffs" on the exhale. Could the med be causing this reaction? She has gained about 2 pounds in 2 months for which we are excited but have concerns about this reaction. If so; Is there another medicine available?

Answers

A: 
Have you already ruled out tapes, whips, rounds, and hookworms? These are usually the culprit when a dog can't gain weight. Many have luck using "satin balls" to help their dogs gain weight. A quick google search will give you plenty of information. Regarding the panting, yes, I have heard of some animals having this reaction. Normally, cutting the dose in half, then slowly increasing it can help resolve this problem. Some Ranitidine may also help. As always, consult with your vet first before making any dosing changes.

A: 
Yes. I tried the pills as well when my dog first got sick. If you compare the amount of each item in the products you will find the powder has many times what the tablets do. I remember comparing and thinking that it would take an enormous amount of the pills to do what the powder does. As soon as I started my dog on the powder she began to get well. I remember my vet telling me that one of her professors in medical school told her that he believed that the powder worked better. It saved my girl's life literally.
