The invention relates to a method for producing pancreatin with reduced viral and microbial contamination, comprising the steps of (a) providing the pancreatin in solid form with a residual moisture of 0.5 weight % or less, down to almost zero, based on the pancreatin provided; (b) subjecting the pancreatin provided in step (a) to a heat treatment at a temperature of 84° C., preferably 80° C. and below; wherein, the biological activity of the pancreatin obtained in step (b) corresponds to at least 50% of the biological activity of the pancreatin provided in step (a); and the viral infectiousness of the pancreatin obtained in step (b) has been reduced by a factor of more than 1 log10 in comparison with the viral infectiousness of the pancreatin provided in step (a), as well as a pancreatin produced according to this method and its use for producing a medicine or a nutritional supplement.
