Safety & Side Effects

報告されている副作用

  • 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)

既知の相互作用

  • 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)

耐容上限摂取量: 10,000 lipase units/kg/day (higher doses associated with fibrosing colonopathy)
