Viokace is a prescription medicine used with a proton pump inhibitor medicine (PPI) to treat adults who cannot digest food normally. Adults with swelling of the pancreas that lasts a long time (chronic pancreatitis), or who have had some or all of their pancreas removed (pancreatectomy) may not digest food normally because they do not make enough enzymes or because their enzymes are not released into the bowel (intestine).

Viokace contains a mixture of digestive enzymes (including lipases, proteases, and amylases) from pig pancreas.

It is not known if Viokace is safe and effective in children. Use of Viokace in children may result in poor nutrition and slowing of growth.
