Medicine Description zymogen-forte 100mg
Zymogen Forte 100 mg Tablets is a medication designed to enhance digestive function by supplying a combination of essential digestive enzymes. The active ingredients, including amylase, lipase, protease, hemicellulase, and pepsin, work synergistically to break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into simpler compounds that can be easily absorbed by the intestine. Dimethyl polysiloxane acts as an anti-foaming agent, reducing gas and bloating by preventing the formation of gas bubbles in the gastrointestinal tract. Ox bile, derived from bovine sources, assists in emulsifying fats, thus facilitating their digestion and absorption. This comprehensive action not only aids in alleviating symptoms of indigestion but also helps individuals with pancreatic insufficiency by supplementing the enzymes that the pancreas is unable to produce in adequate amounts.
