AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE belongs to a group of medications known as digestive enzymes used to treat indigestion.

Indigestion is pain or discomfort in the stomach associated with difficulty in digesting food.
AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE contains digestive enzymes such as Amylase, Lipase, Pancreatin, and Protease, which help in the digestion of food by breaking down or digesting proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
Take AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor based on your digestive disorder. The most common side effects of AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE are nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal pain or cramps. The majority of these side effects do not necessitate medical treatment and fade away gradually over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, consult your doctor.
Before taking AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE, inform your doctor if you take any prescription/non-prescription medicines, herbal, or vitamin supplements.

Indigestion
AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE contains digestive enzymes such as Amylase, Lipase, Pancreatin, and Protease, which are naturally occurring substances the body needs to break down and digest food. AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE is indicated when the pancreas cannot produce or release enough digestive enzymes into the intestine to digest food. AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE could be used to treat indigestion, as a supplement, or as replacement therapy (such as in chronic pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, cancer of the pancreas, after surgery on the pancreas or gut).
Do not use AMYLASE+LIPASE+PANCREATIN+PROTEASE without the doctor's advice if you had a skin reaction or irritation to any medicine.
