creon 20 vs. ultrase 20

Rokiss12 · Aug 22, 2008

does anyone know if the dosage for creon and ultrase are the same? example: i take four ultrase MT 20's with meals, if i were to switch to creon, would i still take four creon 20's? or would i possibly take creon 5 or 10?

thanks.

Each name brand can be a little different in terms of amounts of amylase; lipase; protease

Here's the difference. Both have the same amount of lipase, but ultrase has more amylase & protease...

Pancrease MT 20 Strength Description: 56000 units-20000 units-44000 units
Ultrase MT 20 Strength Description: 65000 units-20000 units-65000 units

They're close, but I seem to recall when plain old pancrease was discontinued, some people had issues with finding a replacement -- regular pancrease MT-__ didn't work for some and they had to find an alternative -- I believe in that case Pancreacarb was a better fit.
