We just switched Alyssa to Prevacid Solutabs, they are like chewable aspirin-type tablets. What a dream!! Shr actually loves taking them, no fight! I just have to keep them high and locked up so she doesn't seek them out on her own. I didn't know about them, so I thought I'd share. But what I want to know is how can we convince the pharmaceuticals to make enzymes in this type of package. A couple of sweet chewables would make meal time soooo much easier, don't you think???

i'll tell you why - digestive enzymes are a pretty small market, unlike a proton pump inhibitor like Prevacid.

so having to do all the research and development to create a new delivery system for a tiny market like digestive enzymes just isn't worth the money.

NoExcuses is right on the money I think!
Not sure it will make you feel any better or not, but moms have been asking this for a long time. At least I know I did, my friends did, and others I know have as well for many years. Perhaps if all the new and upcoming moms keep asking, perhaps one day it will happen. Then Nathan was so excited when he got his g-tube thinking he wouldn't have to take enzymes because he could put them in the tube, doesn't work that way though. Liquid meds can but pills cannot, even if you open them up because they get clogged in the tubing. No way around those enzymes that we have ever been able to find. Nathan's favorite enzyme that they came out with is the Pancreacarb MS-16 because instead of taking 14 pills everytime he eats, he only has to take 7, that has been the biggest most exciting breakthrough for us in the world of enzymes. LOL

I doubt this kind of delivery system will ever be available for enzymes.

They are specially coated little beads.

Coating: Enzymes are delicate little buggers, and they need to survive the stomach (and the acid party it involves) to function in the upper part of the small intestine.

Beads: The enzymes have to empty with the meal. I wish I could find the presentation given by the U of MN GI person at the last conference - it had a really nice description of gastric emptying and bead size.
