Study Summary

This study aims to evaluate if a 6-month course of pancrelipase (CREON) treatment improves symptoms of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) after an attack of acute pancreatitis. Diagnosis of EPI is measured by a fecal elastase value of \<200, and patients must have a qualifying symptom burden based on the EPI symptom tracker survey. Blood and stool will be analyzed as part of this study, and other surveys of health status will be used to track improvement of symptoms.

Primary Outcome

Determine the patient-reported change in total Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI) symptom score as measured by the EPI Symptom Tracker from baseline to 30 days of pancrelipase treatment; scored from 0 - 3, 0 being no symptoms and 3 being worst possible symptoms.
