Limited Availability for Life Saving Drug?
The CF Foundation has learned that the pancreatic enzyme product Pancrease will be available in limited supply at pharmacies around the country until an updated formula called PancreazeTM is made available this summer.
Pancreaze is manufactured by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research and Development.
The CF Services Pharmacy, a subsidiary of the CF Foundation, expects to receive the drug and have it available for customers in early July, according to Dan Klein, senior vice president of the pharmacy.
Pancrease is no longer being manufactured, but pharmacies are able to fill prescriptions while supplies last.
