Creon is a brand name for a prescription medication that contains a mixture of digestive enzymes including lipase, protease, and amylase. The pancreas naturally produces these enzymes, which are critical for the digestion of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Creon is specifically designed to provide these enzymes for individuals whose bodies do not produce enough of them, a condition often seen in pancreatic insufficiency due to cystic fibrosis, chronic pancreatitis, pancreatectomy, or other disorders. By aiding the digestive process, Creon helps to improve nutrient absorption and reduce gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss.

Cyproterone acetate operates by inhibiting the binding of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) to its receptors in the body, reducing the overall effects of androgens. This leads to a decrease in the excessive growth of body hair, improvement in acne conditions, and helps in the management of prostate cancer by controlling the growth of cancerous cells that require androgens to grow. In conjunction with its anti-androgen effects, cyproterone also has progestogen properties, making it effective for use in combination therapies for hormonal management and contraception in women.
