    Author: Lankisch PG, Lembcke B, Kirchhoff S, Hilgers R, Creutzfeldt W.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1988 Jan 08; 113(1):15-7. PubMed ID: 3335192.
    Abstract:
    In an open, randomised cross-over trial nine patients with severe exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and considerable steatorrhea (greater than 25 g fecal fat excretion daily) received for five days, after a treatment-free period of three days, two new acid-protected enzyme preparations: Kreon, three times six capsules daily, pellets of 1-2 mm diameter; Panzytrat 20.000, three times three capsules daily, microtablets of 2 mm diameter. Both preparations significantly decreased fecal weight and fecal fat excretion. With equivalent lipase dosage there was no difference in effect between the two preparations.
