Answer by Dr. Ru: About Enzylon PF usage in lactation
Proteolytic and lipolytic enzyme which is derived from mammalian pancreas that has protease, Enzylon PF and amylase activity. Indicated for treatment of cystic fibrosis and chronic pancreatitis. At latest update no published data on excretion into breast milk was found. Its high molecular weight and poor intestinal absorption make it highly unlikely a significant passage to the milk.A low oral bioavailability hinders the passage into infant plasma from ingested milk. It is a medication used in children and young infants.
