SuspensionClinical Overview
Digestive Enzyme Formulations (Fungal Diastase, Pepsin, Papain, Alpha-Amylase Syrup, Drops, and Tablets; with or without Activated Charcoal or Carminatives) is an oral enzymatic digestive aid. Fungal diastase (derived from Aspergillus oryzae) possesses potent alpha-amylolytic activity, digesting dietary starch into maltose. Pepsin and papain hydrolyze complex dietary proteins into digestible peptides and amino acids in acidic and neutral environments. Activated charcoal adsorbs intestinal gases, and carminatives relieve colic. Indicated for functional dyspepsia, postprandial fullness, starch and protein indigestion, loss of appetite, and flatulence.
