Pancreatitis
Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas. Pancreatitis can be acute, appearing suddenly and lasting for a few days, or it can be chronic, developing gradually and persisting over many years. Although a combination of environmental and genetic factors likely plays a role in the development of most cases of pancreatitis, long-term alcohol abuse remains a leading cause of both acute and chronic pancreatitis.
Acute pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis have similar side effects, which may include:
- mild to severe abdominal pain
- nausea
- vomiting
- fever
- infection
Pancreatitis is a serious side effect of Byetta, a prescription drug used to treat type 2 diabetes.
