Brief Summary: This is a multi-centre randomised phase III double blind placebo controlled parallel group outpatient study in patients diagnosed with hereditary pancreatitis and idiopathic chronic pancreatitis

The hypothesis to be tested is a 30 reduction in the number of days due to pancreatitis from 125 days per year to less than nine days per year under the treatment with magnesium or an antioxidant cocktail called ANTOX

A total of 288 patients will be randomised to one of three treatment groups in order to compare pancreatic pain over a twelve month period
