Pankreoflat Tablet

Description

Pankreoflat Tablet is a combination of digestive enzymes and an anti-foaming agent, designed to aid digestion and relieve gastrointestinal discomfort. It helps in breaking down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats while reducing excessive gas and bloating. It is commonly prescribed for indigestion, flatulence, and pancreatic enzyme deficiency.

Composition:

• Pancreatin 170mg – a natural mixture of digestive enzymes (amylase, lipase, and protease) that help digest carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.

• Dimethicone 80mg – an anti-foaming agent that reduces excessive gas and bloating by dispersing trapped air bubbles in the digestive tract.

Indications / Uses:
Pankreoflat Tablet is prescribed for:

• Relief from indigestion, bloating, and flatulence

• Pancreatic enzyme insufficiency, which can occur in conditions like chronic pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, or after pancreatic surgery

• Supportive treatment in gastrointestinal discomfort caused by heavy or fatty meals

• Improving nutrient absorption in patients with poor digestion

How It Works:

• Pancreatin supplements the body’s natural digestive enzymes, improving the breakdown and absorption of nutrients.

• Dimethicone acts as an anti-foaming agent, helping to relieve symptoms of excess gas, belching, and abdominal discomfort.

Dosage & Administration:

• Taken orally with or immediately after meals.

• Dosage is based on the severity of enzyme deficiency and should be determined by a doctor.

• Swallow the tablet whole; do not crush or chew.
