Pregnancy: For pancreatic enzymes no clinical data on exposed pregnancies are available.
Animal Studies show no evidence for any absorption of porcine pancreatic enzymes. Therefore, no reproductive or developmental toxicity is to be expected.
Caution should be exercised when prescribing to pregnant women.
Lactation: No effects on the suckling child are anticipated since animal studies suggest no systemic exposure of the breastfeeding woman to pancreatic enzymes. Pancreatic enzymes can be used during breastfeeding.
If required during pregnancy and lactation, Creon should be used in doses sufficient to provide adequate nutritional status.
