Descripción
Nortase® Capsules is a vegetarian digestive enzyme medicine used to replace digestive enzymes in people with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). Unlike many pancreatic enzyme products derived from pork, Nortase® contains fungal-derived enzymes that help digest fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. It is indicated for digestive disorders caused by insufficient pancreatic enzyme production, helping relieve symptoms such as bloating, abdominal discomfort, gas, greasy stools, and diarrhea related to maldigestion.

- Rizolipase (Lipase from Rhizopus oryzae) – 7,000 FIP units
