We examined whether probiotics and digestive enzymes could ease gastrointestinal (GI) discomfort after gastric bypass surgery. In a double-blind, randomized trial with 60 patients, we found that both treatments notably improved symptoms like heartburn, gas, and bloating within two weeks. The quality of life, measured by the modified Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (mGIQLI), showed positive changes overall. Thus, it seems that using probiotics or digestive enzymes can provide relief after surgery, leading to a better initial recovery experience.

Effective alternative treatment

I want to share my sister's experience with pancreatin. She suffers from chronic pancreatitis and has been in discomfort. Although this resembles the pharmacy product Creon, she found pancreatin much more effective, noting a significant improvement with less bloating and a reduction in heartburn. If you're lacking pancreatic enzymes, consult your doctor about switching from Creon to pancreatin. Wishing everyone good health.

No more heartburn

Life changer. I have had GERD for nearly all my life, and many prescribed medications failed over time due to costs and side effects. My gastroenterologist suggested over-the-counter Pancreatin, which works far better than my prescription. Now, I can eat almost anything without heartburn, and the cost is significantly lower at under £16 a month.

No indigestion anymore

No more indigestion. Pancreatine 4X is essential for heavy meals or when natural enzymes are lacking. Being middle-aged, I rely on digestive enzymes to avoid heartburn after meals. I carry it when dining out, ensuring I enjoy my meals without enduring heartburn afterward. It outperforms over-the-counter antacids and is a natural alternative that I've relied on for about a year.

Effective for overeating
4 people found this helpful
I'm very satisfied with this product as an alternative to Creon. The dosage is substantial, and I use it as an emergency remedy for overeating. With certain foods like garlic, I experience severe heartburn, but this pancreatin alleviates it effectively. I recommend it to friends and will definitely repurchase.

No discomfort after meals
1 people found this helpful
This product is wonderful; I take one capsule before a heavy meal. I notice no swelling, heaviness, or heartburn afterward. The capsules are small and easy to swallow. The quality appears superior to pharmacy options as well. While the dosage might be high, I avoid regular use to let my body function independently. Absolutely no taste and 100% positive impact.

Immediate relief
Great product! With heartburn, it provides immediate help! Before festive meals, we drink 1 capsule, and everything is well absorbed.

Prevents discomfort
1 people found this helpful
Due to chronic pancreatitis, I've been ordering Now pancreatin for years. I usually take one capsule after meals. The pharmacy's product requires at least four tablets for a similar result. With just one capsule, heartburn, heaviness, and bloating cease to trouble me. I encourage others with similar issues to try it.

Causes heartburn
Initially, I thought Pancreatin would help with digestive problems, but after taking one pill, I experienced severe heartburn and stomachaches. After trying again the next day, I faced strong heartburn once more. Despite drinking plenty of water, I don’t understand why they upset my stomach. I won’t buy them again, and I regret wasting money on two bottles.

Effective for nausea

This is a cost-effective alternative to pharmacy Creon. My sister, post-gallbladder removal, faced ongoing gastrointestinal issues like nausea and heartburn. After starting this medication, she experienced relief. She takes one tablet 20-30 minutes before meals, and thankfully, her symptoms have subsided.
