High amylase levels can be treated with lifestyle changes, such as reducing alcohol and fat intake, or medications, such as pancreatic enzymes or diuretics. Depending on the underlying cause, treatment might also include antibiotics or other medications to address the infection or inflammation. Surgery may be recommended in cases where the pancreas is blocked or the ducts are damaged. Additionally, a low-fat, high-fiber diet may be recommended to reduce symptoms and improve digestion.
