Xylase Tablet belongs to a class of medications known as digestive enzymes, which are used to treat pancreatic enzyme deficiency or pancreatic insufficiency. Pancreatic insufficiency is a condition in which the pancreas fails to produce enough of a specific enzyme required by the body to digest food in the small intestine. A lack of pancreatic enzymes causes indigestion, and you may also experience stomach pain, bloating, and a feeling of fullness.
Xylase Tablet is a combination medication that contains Pancreatin, Bile constituents, and Simethicone. Pancreatin and bile constituents are pancreatic enzyme supplements that thoroughly mix with food and aid in digestion. Simethicone is an antifoaming medication that disintegrates gas bubbles and allows gas to pass easily. As a result, it effectively treats pancreatic enzyme deficiency and its associated symptoms.
