BILE CONSTITUENTS+SIMETHICONE+PANCREATIN

About

BILE CONSTITUENTS+SIMETHICONE+PANCREATIN belongs to a class of medications known as digestive enzymes, which are used to treat pancreatic enzyme deficiency or pancreatic insufficiency. Pancreatic insufficiency is a condition in which the pancreas fails to produce enough of a specific enzyme required by the body to digest food in the small intestine. A lack of pancreatic enzymes causes indigestion, and you may also experience stomach pain, bloating, and a feeling of fullness.

BILE CONSTITUENTS+SIMETHICONE+PANCREATIN is a combination medication that contains Pancreatin, Bile constituents, and Simethicone. Pancreatin and bile constituents are pancreatic enzyme supplements that thoroughly mix with food and aid in digestion. Simethicone is an antifoaming medication that disintegrates gas bubbles and allows gas to pass easily. As a result, it effectively treats pancreatic enzyme deficiency and its associated symptoms.

    Diet & Lifestyle Advise

    • To aid digestion, consume fibre-rich foods such as whole grains, beans, lentils, berries, broccoli, peas, and bananas.
    • Consume probiotic-rich foods like yoghurt/curd, kefir, sauerkraut, tempeh, kimchi, miso, kombucha, buttermilk, natto, and cheese.
    • Avoid overeating, eating too quickly, eating high-fat foods, and eating during stressful situations that can cause stomach discomfort.
    • Eating small meals at regular intervals reduces the amount of time and effort required by the stomach.
    • Use pillows to elevate your head (at least 6 inches) above your feet while sleeping. This promotes the flow of digestive juices into the intestines rather than the oesophagus.
    • Quit smoking as it can irritate the stomach lining.
    • Avoid or limit the consumption of alcoholic beverages.

    Special Advise

    •  
    • Inform your doctor about a recent stomach or intestinal tract operation.
    • Uric acid levels should be monitored in individuals with gout, hyperuricemia, or renal impairment due to the possibility of hyperuricemia.
