Thank you, Matt. This is very helpful. I started Creon 1 week ago and I am still trying to find the right dosage. (It's not working, so far.)
I'm working with my doctor to address this.

@marymichaels do you have a Nurse Ambassador with Abbvie? Mine has been super helpful. I had Whipple surgery Nov 2024 and started Creon in Dec. It's been a game changer. I take three 24K capsules prior to my 3 meals daily and 1 or 2 with snacks. I was taking 2 capsules before meals and had some issues with diarrhea. My Oncologist suggested 3 capsules before meals and that made all the difference for me. I hope you can find the perfect dose!! Good luck!

@marymichaels - it took me a little bit to get it dialed in so hang in there. I am sure your doctor has access to this and it helped me when I first started as it's a Creon dosing calculator - https://www.creonhcp.com/dosing-calculator
Happy to help if anyone needs any Creon advice - I've taken thousands of them! (not all at once)
🙂
