This medicine belongs to the group of so-called pancreatic enzyme preparations. Pancreatic enzymes are the digestive enzymes of the pancreas. The most important digestive enzymes are lipase, amylase and proteases. Lipase breaks down fat in food, amylase breaks down starch, and protease breaks down proteins.
The enzymes are contained in capsules containing acid-fast microtablets. The microtablets are released from the capsules into the stomach and mix with food so that the enzymes are distributed in the food and reach the small intestine.
It is used to replace digestive enzymes in cases of poor digestion (maldigestion) due to impaired pancreatic function.
The medicine is suitable for adults, adolescents and children.
If you don't feel better or even feel worse, contact your doctor.
