Abstract

A total of 50 patients who presented during the period of 24 months (October 2013 to October 2015) were studied. In this study, age of the patients ranged from 20 - 60 years and most of patients are between the age group 30- 40 years, as alcohol consumption was more in this age group. The present study has shown that alcoholic pancreatitis is more common in males. There are no females in this study. Because intake of alcohol is more common in males. Serum amylase and lipase are markers that are elevated in episodes of pancreatitis. Prophylactic usage of antibiotics in alcohol induced pancreatitis has no role. Over 97% of alcohol- induced pancreatitis responded well to the management without antibiotics.
