Intro: Digenorm is a well-balanced digestive aid produced by Pharo Pharma. It contains a combination of natural enzymes: Papain (1.6g), Pepsin (0.8g), and Sanzyme (0.24g). This triple-enzyme formula acts as a comprehensive "digestive booster" that helps break down proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and fibers. It is particularly valued in Egypt for being sugar-free and sodium-free, making it a safe choice for a wide variety of patients.
Indications:
Functional Dyspepsia: Relief from feelings of fullness, bloating, and flatulence after eating.
Appetite Stimulant: Often used for children and adults to improve appetite by speeding up the digestive process.
Enzyme Deficiency: Compensating for reduced digestive secretions due to chronic gastritis, pancreatitis, or post-surgical recovery.
Chronic Parasitic Infections: Supportive treatment for patients suffering from persistent indigestion due to parasites like Amoeba.

Crucial Rules:
Safe for Diabetics: Since it is sugar-free, it can be used by diabetic patients without affecting blood glucose levels.
Safe for Hypertension: Being sodium-free makes it suitable for patients on a low-salt diet for high blood pressure.
Gout Caution: Some formulations of digestive enzymes are used with caution in patients with high uric acid levels (Gout); consult your doctor if you have this condition.
