About Digeplex Syrup

Digeplex Syrup is a digestive aid primarily used to treat digestive disorders. It effectively treats dyspepsia (indigestion), loss of appetite, burping, flatulence (gas), and abdominal distention (bloating and swelling in the stomach area). Indigestion/dyspepsia is the inability to digest food, which is associated with pain and discomfort in the stomach.

Digeplex Syrup contains Alpha-amylase and Pepsin. Alpha-amylase is an enzyme that works by breaking down or digesting proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It is used as a digestive aid in indigestion and stomach fullness problems. Pepsin is a proteolytic enzyme (protein-digesting) that breaks down larger protein molecules into smaller peptides (a short chain of amino acids). 

Use Digeplex Syrup in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. Digeplex Syrup is generally safe to use. However, some may experience side effects like nausea, diarrhoea, and abdominal pain. Although not everyone experiences these side effects, please seek medical attention if they occur.

If you or your child have a history of inflammation/swelling of the pancreas (acute pancreatitis), let your doctor know about it. Intake of probiotics, prebiotics, and plenty of fluids is recommended if you suffer from indigestion. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use Digeplex Syrup with proper consultation and caution. Digeplex Syrup is recommended for children only when the doctor has advised it.

Medicinal Benefits

Digeplex Syrup helps relieve digestive disorders and contains Alpha-amylase and Pepsin. Alpha-amylase is an enzyme that works by breaking down or digesting proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It is used as a digestive aid in indigestion and stomach fullness problems. Pepsin is a proteolytic enzyme (protein-digesting) that breaks down larger protein molecules into smaller peptides (a short chain of amino acids). It mimics the natural human pepsin enzyme and is used as a pancreatic enzyme replacement in pancreatic insufficiency. Thus, Digeplex Syrup promotes the digestion of carbohydrates and proteins and helps absorb the essential nutrients in the intestine.
