Enzyme preparation.
Compensates the insufficiency of the exocrine function of the pancreas, has a proteolytic, amylolytic and lipolytic effect.

The drug improves the functional state of the gastrointestinal tract, normalizes the digestive process.
Trypsin inhibits the stimulated secretion of the pancreas, has analgesic effect.

Pancreatic enzymes are released from the dosage form in the alkaline medium of the small intestine (as the tablet is coated with an enteric coating protecting the components of the drug from the effects of gastric juice).

The maximum enzymatic activity is observed 30-45 minutes after ingestion.
