Combizym® is a highly stable enzyme preparation consists of:
- Icing coating: Protect the gastric enzyme, Aspergillus oryzae and dissolve in stomach
- Enzyme extract of microorganism, Aspergillus oryzae: Specifically containing cellulase which human do not secrete by ourselves. Strong ability to catabolize proteins, starch and cellulose, thus ameliorating dyspeptic symptoms in the upper digestive system
- Enteric coating: Protect pancreatin from catabolism by gastric juice, ensuring pancreatin delivery to intestinal tract
- Pancreatin: Containing lipase, protease and amylase for the hydrolysis of lipid, protein and starch. Thus, ameliorating dyspeptic symptoms such as abdominal distension and diarrhoea in the small intestine.

More about Dyspepsia
Digestive system consists of the gastrointestinal tract and the accessory organs of digestion. As we eat, the digestive process starts in our mouth, through the esophagus to the stomach, small intestine and large intestine. The glands in digestive organs will secrete digestive juice which will further breakdown food into smaller molecules for the ease of nutrients absorption.
Dyspepsia (also known as indigestion) refers to the discomfort and symptoms occur in the upper abdomen.
