Pangrol (Pancreas Powder From Porcine)

Pancreas Powder From Porcine, the active ingredient in Pangrol, is a biological preparation presented as a powder for oral use. It provides exogenous pancreatic enzymes to support digestion in individuals with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. GNH USA supplies Pangrol as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Pangrol, containing pancreas powder from porcine, is used as an enzyme supplement for conditions involving exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.

Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency: improves nutrient absorption by supplying digestive enzymes. Cystic fibrosis‑related pancreatic insufficiency: aids digestion of fats, proteins and carbohydrates. Chronic pancreatitis with enzyme deficiency: assists in fat digestion and reduces steatorrhea.

Pancreas powder from porcine may cause a range of adverse reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects: - Abdominal discomfort or cramping. - Flatulence or bloating. - Diarrhea or loose stools. - Nausea or mild vomiting. - Constipation or oily stools.
