Mechanism of Action

ZENPEP® is designed to mimic typical exocrine pancreatic function1,2

Uniform beads are designed to help disperse enzymes directly in the chyme to enhance nutrient absorption1,3

BENEFITS OF ENTERIC-COATED BEADS1-3

Inhibits degradation, targets enzyme release, and works quickly Inhibits degradation, targets enzyme release, and works quickly
  • ZENPEP is formulated to optimize enzyme bioavailability1
  • Once released, the enzymes catalyze the hydrolysis of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates1

* A phase I, open-label, randomized, single-treatment, crossover study in 17 adult patients (>18 years of age) with EPI secondary to chronic pancreatitis to determine the bioavailability of lipase from ZENPEP in the duodenum under fed conditions. Statistical significance was seen at 30 minutes as compared with duodenal lipase release without ZENPEP.2
