Consumer:

Porcine-derived pancreatic enzyme products contain purines that may increase blood uric acid levels. Extremely high dosages of exogenous pancreatic enzymes have also been associated with hyperuricosuria and hyperuricemia. Therapy with pancrelipase should be administered cautiously in patients with preexisting hyperuricemia, gout, or renal impairment. Monitoring of serum uric acid levels is recommended.
