Etazyme Tablet comprises three active ingredients:

Charcoal (75 mg): Charcoal is an adsorbent, possessing numerous internal spaces or pores that enable it to trap chemicals and gases in the gastrointestinal tract. It prevents the absorption of toxins, bacteria, and other harmful substances, thereby helping manage symptoms like indigestion and diarrhoea.
Fungal Diastase (100 mg): Derived from Aspergillus oryzae, fungal diastase refers to a group of enzymes that facilitate the breakdown of starch into simpler forms like maltose and dextrins. This action aids in digesting carbohydrates efficiently.
Papain (60 mg): Extracted from raw papaya fruit latex, papain is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks down proteins into peptides and amino acids. By aiding protein digestion, it can help alleviate bloating and stomach discomfort due to protein-rich meals.
