I have an EPI positive male who just celebrated his 13th birthday. His feed is the following: Morning: 3 Cups Purina EN, mixed with canned Pedigree Chicken & Rice(2 heaping Tablespoons)and a piece of boneless, skinless chicken breast which I microwave. Mix with enough water to moisten all of the dry food. I do not soak the food. Two teas. of Pancrezyme sprinkled over the food. I let the food sit for about 3-5 minutes to let the Pancrezyme begin to work. I used Viokase for many years and it worked fine, but the cost was about $50.00 more that Pancrezyme. Evening: 2-3cups of Purina EN, canned Pedigree Chicken & Rice, sprinkle Pancrezyme on top, mix. Treats: Iams Large Dog biscuits 3-4 per day. IMPORTANT; Low fat and low fiber. Plenty of fresh water at all times. This has worked for my guy for 10 years and he has normal stools. I hope this helps your friend. Mary Gattone -----Original Message----- From: Chris S.
