Amylase is an enzyme that changes complex sugars into simple sugars that can be

used by the body. It is produced by the pancreas and salivary glands and released

into the mouth, stomach, and intestines to aid in digestion. The amylase level of a

client who has acute pancreatitis usually increases within 12 to 24 hr and can

remain elevated for 2 to 3 days.
