Hi-Vegi-Lip is a combination of digestive enzymes (proteins). These enzymes are normally produced by the pancreas and are important for digesting fats, proteins, and sugars.

Hi-Vegi-Lip is used to replace digestive enzymes when the body does not have enough of its own. Certain medical conditions can cause this lack of enzymes, such as cystic fibrosis, pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, or pancreas surgery.

Hi-Vegi-Lip may also be used to treat a condition called steatorrhea (loose, fatty stools).

Hi-Vegi-Lip may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
