🔬 How This Medicine Works (Pharmacology)
Pharmacokinetics
How It Works
This medicine combines two active ingredients with complementary actions. Pancreatin provides exogenous pancreatic enzymes (amylase, lipase, protease) that catalyze the hydrolysis of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the duodenum, compensating for deficient endogenous enzyme secretion. Simethicone is a silicone polymer that lowers surface tension of gas bubbles in the gastrointestinal tract, causing them to coalesce and be expelled more easily, thereby relieving bloating and flatulence.
