DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
The posology aims at individual needs and depends on the
severity of the disease and the composition of food.
It is recommended to take the enzymes during or immediately
after the meals.
The capsules should be swallowed intact, without crushing or
chewing, with enough fluid during or after each meal or snack.
When swallowing of capsules is difficult (e.g. small children or
elderly patients), the capsules may be carefully opened and the
pellets may be added to acidic soft food [pH < 5.5] that does
not require chewing, or the pellets can be taken with liquid [pH
< 5.5]. This could be apple sauce or yogurt or fruit juice with a
pH less than 5.5, e.g. apple, orange or pineapple juice. This
mixture should not be stored.
Crushing and chewing of the pellets or mixing with food or
fluid with a pH greater than 5.5 can disrupt the protective
enteric coating. This can result in early release of enzymes in
the oral cavity and may lead to reduced efficacy and irritation
of the mucous membranes.
Care should be taken that no product is retained in the mouth.
It
is
important
to
ensure
adequate
hydration
at
all
times,
especially during periods of increased loss of fluids. Inadequate
hydration
may
aggravate
constipation.
Any
mixture
of
the
pellets with food or liquids should be used immediately and
should not be stored.
