Fears cancer patients 'may starve' without vital drug

72% Informative
Creon , a pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (Pert), helps digestion.
It is thought more than 61,000 patients in the UK need it, including those with pancreatic cancer, cystic fibrosis and chronic pancreatitis.
Without the drug, patients lose weight and strength, which means their ability to cope with treatment such as chemotherapy is reduced.
The Department of Health and Social Care says it is working to resolve the issues.
