Pancreatin EC 150 mg Capsules (Pellets) is a digestive enzyme supplement that helps break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates in the food you consume. It is used to support digestion, particularly in individuals with pancreatic insufficiency or other digestive disorders that impair the natural enzyme production in the body.
- Aids in the digestion of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates
- Supports digestive function in cases of pancreatic insufficiency
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it.
Pancreatin contains high levels of biologically active pancreatic enzymes (lipase, amylase, and protease). The enzymes catalyze the hydrolysis of fats into glycerol and fatty acids, proteins into proteases and derived substances, and starch into dextrins and sugars.
Pancrelipase is used to replace the deficiency of pancreatic enzymes. As abovementioned, pancrelipase is formed by a mixture of lipase, protease, and amylase which are able to break down fat, protein, and starches, respectively, in the small intestine. For a more specific description of each mechanism of action, please visit Pancrelipase amylase, Pancrelipase protease, and Pancrelipase lipase.
