Update information
December 2020: We amended the first 2 bullet points of recommendation 1.3.17 to form a single bullet point highlighting the importance of rotating insulin injection sites within the same body region. This followed an MHRA Drug Safety Update to remind patients to do this to avoid skin reactions.
Minor changes since publication
December 2024: In September 2024, supplies of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy were disrupted, so availability varies. The latest information on prescribing and ordering was added to the sections on patient information, passing information to GPs and nutrition support.
October 2022: We updated the link in the recommendation on nutrition support for people with chronic alcohol-related pancreatitis, to clarify which section in the NICE guideline on alcohol-use disorders was being referred to.
