Safety & Side Effects

الآثار الجانبية المُبلّغ عنها

  • ⚠ Abdominal pain and cramping
  • ⚠ Nausea
  • ⚠ Fibrosing colonopathy at very high doses (rare; primarily in cystic fibrosis patients)
  • ⚠ Hyperuricemia (high doses of protease can increase uric acid)

التفاعلات المعروفة

  • ● Calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide antacids (may reduce enzyme activity)
  • ● Acarbose and miglitol (pancreatic amylase may counteract alpha-glucosidase inhibitors)
  • ● Iron supplements (protease may reduce iron absorption)
  • ● Proton pump inhibitors (may improve enzyme efficacy by reducing acid denaturation)

الحد الأقصى المسموح به: 10,000 lipase units/kg/day (higher doses associated with fibrosing colonopathy)
