General Information on Viokase 16
Viokase 16 is prescribed to patients who are not able to digest food properly due to certain medical conditions. The generic name of this drug is Pancrelipase. It is available only with a prescription, so you should always consult a physician before you buy Viokase 16.
Viokase 16 contains three digestive enzymes- amylase, lipase, and protease, as its active ingredients. These three enzymes play a vital role in food digestion. Under normal circumstances, the pancreas is completely capable of producing adequate amounts of these three digestive enzymes. Certain conditions such as cystic fibrosis, however, hinder the production of these digestion-aiding enzymes . By providing the body with an adequate amount of amylase, lipase, and protease, Viokase 16 helps boost food digestion.
Viokase 16 is meant for oral administration only. This drug is available in the form of oral tablets. The nonmedical ingredients used in Viokase 16 tablets are: croscarmellose sodium, stearic acid, lactose, talc, silicon dioxide, and microcrystalline cellulose.
Side effects of Viokase 16
You should not buy Viokase 16 if you have a hypersensitivity to pork proteins. Before prescribing the drug, your doctor will ask you about your medical history.

Consult your doctor immediately if you experience facial flushing, trouble breathing, skin rashes, wheezing, hives, shortness of breath, swelling, or trouble swallowing after taking this drug.
