Supply constraint of Creon® 10000 Creon® 25000 (Pancreatin)
4th July 2024

As the marketing authorisation holder and distributor of Creon® in the UK, we were notified by our third-party manufacturing partner, Abbott, of a supply constraint of Creon® (pancreatin) in the UK.

This constrained supply is due to high global demand and reaching maximum manufacturing supply output.

Creon® is a biologic product with a natural variation of its raw material and is made using a complex manufacturing process. The complexity of the process means that the ability to increase manufacturing capacity in the short-term is limited.

There is a long-term strategic initiative between Viatris and Abbott to increase the supply output of Creon® at the manufacturing facility. This work has already begun with expected completion in 2026.

During this supply constraint, we hope to be able to supply approximately 90-95% of the average monthly demand for Creon® lipase units into the market each month, until this supply constraint is resolved.
