To calculate dispense quantity for 30 days, multiply the max number of feedings given per day x 30 days.

This is intended for informational use only and shows the minimum appropriate recommended dosing for the patient criteria specified. CREON needs to be stored and dispensed in the original container to protect from moisture. Keep the desiccant in the bottle if present. Start at the lowest recommended dosage and individualize the dosage based on clinical symptoms, the degree of steatorrhea present, and the fat content of the diet. If signs and symptoms of malabsorption persist, increase the dosage. Do not exceed 2,500 lipase units/kg/meal, 10,000 lipase units/kg/day, or 4,000 lipase units/g fat ingested/day in adult and pediatric patients greater than 12 months of age without further investigation.

When using e-prescribing systems, please make sure to specify the number of capsules that should be taken per meal and per snack in the notes area.
