Product introduction

Helogest Syrup is a digestive enzyme supplement used in the treatment of indigestion/dyspepsia. It helps break down complex food molecules into simpler forms and facilitates better absorption of essential nutrients. This action provides relief from indigestion, bloating, and discomfort after having meals.

Helogest Syrup may be taken with or without food. However, always take it in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor. Continue taking the medicine for as long as your doctor prescribes it even if you feel better. If you stop taking the medicine abruptly, the symptoms may return. Your dose may be decreased gradually over a few days if the doctor finds it suitable to stop the treatment.

Some common side effects of this medicine include nausea, constipation, skin rash, and pruritus. These side effects mostly occur at the initial stage of the treatment and usually disappear within a few days with continued treatment. If any of these symptoms get worse or bother you, consult with the doctor. 

Do not take Helogest Syrup if you have a known history of allergic reactions to any of the ingredients of this medicine. Let your doctor know if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines. To ensure that this medication is safe for you, let the doctor also know if you have any pre-existing medical conditions, are pregnant, are planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding.
