Causes & Risk Factors for Pancreatitis

Pills Overdose

In some cases, overdosing prescription pills can also cause pancreatitis in many people. This is because frequent doses force your digestive system to work hard to process these substances. Over time, the pancreas will suffer from exhaustion, making it more susceptible to pancreatitis. Thus, make sure to be careful and avoid addictive habits to pills. Always read the labels carefully and consult your doctor before starting taking any new medications as well. [2]
