PERT should not be a prescription lottery for our patients, all pancreatic cancer patients should be offered it. Next steps are to discuss how we can improve The Pancreatic Society of Great Britain & Ireland Pancreatic Cancer UK GBIHPBA IHPBA E-AHPBA Prof Keith Roberts SoMe4HPB Pancreatic Cancer Action

Despite clinical consensus that PERT is crucial for people with pancreatic cancer, & recommendations by NICE, only half are being prescribed PERT. We are joining Pancreatic Cancer UK’s campaign for PERT to be made UK-wide priority in pancreatic cancer care! #TransformLivesPrescribe
