Default pancreatic enzymes in colitis?

Anyone know of any research on giving mom pancreatic enzymes to help
babies with bloody stools despite mom attempting an elimination diet?
I found one study from 1999 in the Journal of Pediatric
Gastroenterology & Nutrition but it had a whopping 4 patients and is
nearly 10 years old. It would seem sensible to follow this up with a
stronger study but I haven't found anything. I have a patient with
this problem and though part of the problem may have been not giving
the elimination diet sufficient time to work, would be interested in
this possibility. As I suspect it would involve a battle to get the
enzymes covered (I believe they're a pretty expensive drug) I would
need to have some evidence to back me up.
