Pharmacological action

Micrazim enzyme preparation from animal pancreas, which includes protease, lipase and amylase, which provide the digestion of proteins, fats and carbohydrates of food.

After taking the drug, the gelatin capsule under the action of gastric juice dissolves in the stomach and pancreatin microgranules are resistant to the acidic environment of the stomach, together with the gastric contents, they enter the duodenum 12, and then into the small intestine, where digestive enzymes are released and enzymatic digestion is provided.

Pancreatin in the form of microgranules provides faster mixing of digestive enzymes with intestinal contents and their uniform distribution in it, which provides higher digesting activity. The enzymatic activity of pancreatin is manifested maximally 30-40 minutes after ingestion.

After interaction with substrates, protease, lipase and amylase in the lower intestine lose activity and are excreted along with intestinal contents.

Micrasim is not absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and acts topically.
