Zymocoal Tablet contains digestive enzymes. It is primarily used to treat digestive disorders. Generally, indigestion or stomach upset can occur from various factors such as food allergy, overeating, greasy or spicy food consumption, and some medicines. Zymocoal Tablet helps in treating conditions such as dyspepsia (indigestion), loss of appetite, flatulence (gas), and abdominal distention (bloating and swelling in the stomach area). Indigestion/dyspepsia can be defined as the inability to digest food that is associated with pain and discomfort in the stomach.

Zymocoal Tablet is a combination medicine containing Pancreatin (digestive enzyme), Simethicone and Activated charcoal (antiflatulent).
