Conzyme 10mg Tablet

Conzyme 10mg Tablet contains Serratiopeptidase, an enzyme derived from the bacteria Serratia E15. Serratiopeptidase is a proteolytic enzyme that has anti-inflammatory, anti-edematous, and fibrinolytic properties. It is widely used as a systemic enzyme therapy to alleviate inflammation and promote tissue healing.

Uses:

• Conzyme 10mg Tablet is indicated for the treatment of various inflammatory conditions, including acute and chronic pain, swelling, and edema associated with conditions such as arthritis, trauma, surgery, and sinusitis.
• It is also prescribed to improve circulation, reduce postoperative pain and swelling, and enhance the absorption of antibiotics in certain infections.

How It Works:

• Serratiopeptidase works by breaking down and digesting proteins, particularly those involved in inflammation and tissue remodeling.
• It inhibits the release of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins and bradykinin, thereby reducing pain, swelling, and inflammation.
• Serratiopeptidase also enhances tissue repair and wound healing by removing damaged or dead tissue and promoting the formation of healthy granulation tissue.

Dosage:

• The dosage of Conzyme 10mg Tablet may vary depending on the severity of the condition, as well as the individual’s age, weight, and response to treatment.
• It is usually taken orally on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals, to maximize absorption and efficacy.
• The typical adult dose is 10 mg to 30 mg of Serratiopeptidase taken 1 to 3 times daily.

• In rare cases, patients may experience anaphylaxis or severe allergic reactions requiring immediate medical attention.

When Not to Use:

• Conzyme 10mg Tablet is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity or allergic reactions to Serratiopeptidase or other proteolytic enzymes.
• It should not be used in patients with active bleeding disorders, peptic ulcer disease, or recent surgery, as it may increase the risk of bleeding.
