PANMATE 10000 CAPS 10'S

About

PANMATE 10000 CAPS provide pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT), containing a blend of lipase, amylase, and protease enzymes derived from porcine sources. These enzymes are crucial for the proper digestion of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins in the small intestine. In conditions like exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), the pancreas fails to produce adequate amounts of these digestive enzymes, leading to maldigestion and malabsorption of essential nutrients. This can manifest as symptoms such as steatorrhea (fatty, foul-smelling stools), abdominal pain, bloating, and unintended weight loss.

By supplementing these vital enzymes, PANMATE 10000 CAPS help to break down food into absorbable components, thereby improving nutrient uptake and alleviating gastrointestinal symptoms. The capsules are designed with an enteric coating to protect the enzymes from degradation by stomach acid, ensuring their release and activity in the alkaline environment of the duodenum. This therapy is essential for patients with cystic fibrosis, chronic pancreatitis, pancreatectomy, or other conditions that impair pancreatic enzyme production, helping to restore digestive function and improve overall nutritional status and quality of life.
