Aristozyme syrup is an over-the-counter (OTC) digestive enzyme formulation. It helps relieve gas, bloating, and indigestion, especially after having meals. Its active ingredients include diastase and pepsin, which are types of digestive enzymes. These enzymes help in breaking down complex food particles into simple structures that facilitate easy digestion.

Aristozyme syrup may be taken with or without food. The usual adult dose is 5 mL (1 teaspoonful), taken immediately after meals or as directed by the doctor. Approximately half of the adult dose is suggested for children. Do not take it without a doctor’s suggestion.  For best results, use it regularly for the duration as recommended and do not take an excessive amount.

Aristozyme syrup is usually well-tolerated when used as directed. Nausea, constipation, itching, and a skin rash are possible side effects of this medication. These side effects usually occur in the initial stage of treatment. If treatment continues, they will usually clear up in a few days. However, if any of these symptoms worsen or bother you, contact your doctor.

Aristozyme syrup is not a substitute for a healthy diet. Eat a balanced diet rich in fiber and drink lots of water to maintain good digestion. This product is intended to support digestion and ease symptoms of digestive discomfort. It should not replace medical advice or evaluation for persistent symptoms.

Aristozyme syrup contains diastase and pepsin, two of the main active agents that aid the natural digestion process in the stomach. Diastase enzyme helps digest complex carbohydrates, such as starches, into simple sugar molecules, thereby improving digestion. The pepsin enzyme helps digest proteins and convert them into smaller peptides or amino acid molecules. Thus, these two agents aid in promoting better food breakdown and absorption, a smooth digestion process, and reducing digestive issues. Such a digestive aid helps in the alleviation of conditions related to indigestion, such as bloating, stomach fullness, heaviness after eating, and stomach discomfort.

• Keep in a cool, dark place.
• Keep out of reach of children.
