Each row is one product from one pharmacy, shown in the pack size with the lowest price per unit; its other pack sizes are listed under “other pack sizes”. Price per unit = the pack price divided by the units in the pack, before shipping; we sort by it and don't assume how long a pack lasts. Total with shipping = the pack price plus the pharmacy's shipping fee for one order. Prices checked Nov 11, 2026 on each pharmacy's website, in U.S. dollars (converted when a pharmacy prices in Canadian dollars). The lowest price at the top of this page uses only packs whose maker the pharmacy names, or whose product country and ships-from country it states. Prices change often; confirm at checkout. U.S. rows: the cash price a U.S. pharmacy published on its own website on the date shown, plus its standard shipping; no insurance or discount cards.

What is Pertzye used for?
Pertzye (pancrelipase) is a mix of digestive enzymes (lipase, protease and amylase) from pig pancreas. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), it is used:
- To treat exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (when the pancreas doesn't make enough enzymes to digest food) in adults and children.
Pertzye is taken with meals and snacks, and the dose is based on lipase units. The label starts adults and children 4 and older at 500 lipase units per kilogram of body weight per meal, adjusted to symptoms, with about half a meal dose for each snack. Capsules are swallowed whole, or opened and sprinkled on soft acidic food such as applesauce, but never crushed or chewed. The label warns about fibrosing colonopathy, a rare bowel narrowing linked to high doses. It has no boxed warning and no contraindications. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Pertzye from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and Pertzye has no U.S. generic, so compare the price per capsule at your prescribed dose before you order. Federal law generally doesn't allow individuals to import prescription drugs, though under its personal importation policy the FDA has long used enforcement discretion for some personal-use shipments, generally no more than a three-month supply (FDA). Congress has said enforcement against individuals should focus on imports that pose a significant threat to public health (Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act section 804(j)(1), 21 U.S.C. 384(j)(1)). You need a prescription from your doctor. New U.S. Customs rules for mailed orders start January 20, 2027.
