Overview
•Strictly contraindicated in individuals with active peptic ulcer disease or severe gastritis, as supplemental hydrochloric acid and pepsin can exacerbate mucosal injury.
•Do not open or empty capsules prior to consumption; the raw acid and proteolytic enzyme powder can severely irritate the oral mucosa and oesophagus.
•Interacts antagonistically with acid-reducing medications such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and H2-receptor blockers, which work to suppress gastric acidity.
•Formulated with porcine-derived pancreatin and pepsin as well as bovine ox bile, making it entirely unsuitable for vegetarians, vegans, and those avoiding pork or beef products.
•Common adverse effects include gastric burning, heartburn, stomach cramps, and diarrhoea if taken without adequate food or by individuals with intact gastric acid output.
