Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency in Diabetes Mellitus: Incidence, Pathogenesis, Diagnosis and Treatment

Journal Title: Гастроентерологія - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 55

Abstract

The article deals with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), which is being detected in a significant number (30–50 %) of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) type I and II and could potentially affect the compensation of DM. Enzyme replacement therapy should be considered as one of the most promising treatments in patients with DM. This therapy is preferably to be carried out in accordance with clinical guidelines set out in the recent consensuses, however, with higher doses of modern fourth-generation enzyme preparations such as Pangrol® 25000. Additional methods of treatment for EPI in patients with DM are correction of nutritional status using appropriate diet, as well as vitamin replacement therapy.
