OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S

How OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S Works

• OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S is a digestive aid formulated to support the breakdown of food in the digestive system. It contains Pancreatin, a mixture of digestive enzymes, as its active ingredient. These enzymes, including amylase, protease, and lipase, play crucial roles in breaking down complex carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, respectively.
• Amylase works by hydrolyzing starch (a complex carbohydrate) into simpler sugars like maltose and glucose. This process begins in the mouth with salivary amylase and continues in the small intestine with pancreatic amylase. By breaking down starch into smaller units, amylase facilitates the absorption of carbohydrates in the small intestine, providing the body with energy.
• Protease, also known as peptidases, are enzymes that break down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids. They target the peptide bonds that link amino acids together in protein chains. Pancreatin contains various types of proteases like trypsin and chymotrypsin, which work synergistically to digest a wide range of proteins. This process is essential for absorbing amino acids, which are the building blocks for repairing tissues, synthesizing hormones, and supporting various bodily functions.
• Lipase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of fats (triglycerides) into glycerol and fatty acids. This is a critical step in fat digestion, as only these smaller molecules can be absorbed by the intestinal lining. Lipase produced by the pancreas is the primary enzyme responsible for fat digestion. By breaking down fats, lipase enables the absorption of essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K), which are crucial for various physiological processes, including cell structure, hormone production, and immune function.
• In individuals with pancreatic insufficiency or other digestive disorders, the body may not produce enough of these enzymes to properly digest food. OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S supplements the body's natural enzymes, aiding in the digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. This can lead to improved nutrient absorption, reduced digestive discomfort such as bloating and gas, and overall improved digestive health.
• The capsule formulation is designed to protect the enzymes from being deactivated by stomach acid. The enzymes are released in the small intestine, where they can effectively break down food. The dosage of OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S should be determined by a healthcare professional based on the individual's specific needs and the severity of their enzyme deficiency. Regular use of OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S, as directed, can significantly improve digestion and nutrient absorption, particularly for those with pancreatic insufficiency or other digestive disorders.

If you find it difficult to swallow, discuss alternative formulations with your doctor or pharmacist.
• OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S contains digestive enzymes that help break down food. It is used in conditions where the pancreas doesn't produce enough enzymes, such as cystic fibrosis, chronic pancreatitis, or after pancreatic surgery. This medicine helps improve digestion and nutrient absorption, reducing symptoms like bloating, gas, and stomach discomfort. If your symptoms persist, consult your doctor.
• Inform your doctor about your complete medical history and any other medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs, herbal supplements, and vitamins, before starting OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S. Certain medications can interact with digestive enzymes. Specifically, mention if you are allergic to pork products, as some enzyme formulations are derived from porcine sources. This information helps prevent potential allergic reactions or drug interactions.
• If you miss a dose of OVERZYME 25000 CAPSULE 10'S, take it as soon as you remember, but only if you are about to eat a meal or snack.
