About Debul 170 mg/80 mg Tablet

PANCREATIN+DIMETHICONE belongs to a class of medicine called 'digestive enzymes' or 'pancreatic enzyme supplement' prescribed to treat indigestion and bloating due to pancreas problems. PANCREATIN+DIMETHICONE is prescribed for people whose bodies do not make enough of their own enzymes to digest their food. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency is the inability to digest food properly due to the pancreas' lack of a digestive enzyme. 

PANCREATIN+DIMETHICONE is a combination of two drugs: Pancreatin (digestive enzyme) and Dimethicone (anti-flatulent). PANCREATIN+DIMETHICONE contains Pancreatin which is a digestive enzyme that helps in the digestion of food. Pancreatin contains ‘pancreatin enzymes’ breakdown food and converts it into energy. On the other hand, Dimethicone works by decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles, thereby facilitates the expulsion of gas through flatus or belching (burping). It also prevents the accumulation and formation of gas in the digestive tract.
