Mild cases may only require 1 or 2 days of supportive treatment. Aggressive [[Fluid Therapy|fluid therapy]] will be needed to treat dehydration and fluid loss from [[Intestine Diarrhoea - Pathology|diarrhoea]] and [[Control of Feeding - Anatomy & Physiology#The Vomit Reflex|vomiting]]. Monitoring of renal function and potassium levels which may need supplementing. Patients may also have metabolic acidosis in acute pancreatitis or be alkalotic due to [[Control of Feeding - Anatomy & Physiology#The Vomit Reflex|vomiting]]. Should [[Diabetes mellitus - WikiClinical|diabetes mellitus]] develop, this may require treatment with insulin. Further management may be required for respiratory distress, bleeding disorders, renal failure, cardiovascular problems and neurological disorders although these all carry a poor prognosis.
