Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Taking pancrelipase on an empty stomach may not provide optimal effectiveness as there would be no food in the stomach to mix with the enzymes for proper digestion.

B. Taking pancrelipase 1 hour before meals may not be as effective as taking it with meals because the enzymes need to be present when food enters the stomach for digestion.

C. Taking pancrelipase 1 hour after meals may not be as effective as taking it with meals because the enzymes need to be present when food enters the stomach for digestion.

D. Taking pancrelipase with meals is the correct instruction. Pancrelipase supplements the digestive enzymes that are deficient in individuals with cystic fibrosis, helping them digest food properly. Taking it with meals ensures that the enzymes are present when food enters the stomach, optimizing digestion and nutrient absorption.
