Description

NGD Care – Digestive Enzymes is a carefully formulated combination of digestive enzymes to support digestion in dogs and cats. This formula helps break down proteins, fats, carbohydrates, lactose and fiber, and supports both gastric function (pepsin, betaine) and pancreatic function (amylase, lipase, protease). The supplement is particularly suitable for reduced enzyme production due to stress, low-grade inflammation, chronic gastrointestinal complaints, or conditions such as pancreatic insufficiency.

The enzymes in this formula are widely applicable:

  • Amylase – breaks down starches into simple sugars
  • Lipase – helps in the digestion of fats
  • Protease, Papain and Pepsin – digest proteins
  • Bromelain – protein splitting and anti-inflammatory, also works for allergies
  • Cellulase – breaks down plant fibres
  • Lactase – facilitates lactose digestion
  • Betaine – activates pepsin in the stomach

Due to the composition in a stomach acid-resistant capsule , the enzymes only become active in the intestines, where they can optimally support digestion.

  • Side effects
    • Rare: mild stomach upset, belching, change in bowel habits.
    • In case of overdose: sometimes burning sensation.
  • Interactions
    • Digestive enzymes mainly have a local effect in the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract and usually do not strongly influence the systemic pharmacokinetics of drugs. However, they can subtly change the rate of degradation of food components and thus the absorption kinetics of oral medication taken simultaneously, especially with preparations in matrix form (e.g. enteric-coated tablets or food-bound medication).
    • Proteases can theoretically break down protein-bound drugs or coating of capsules more quickly, but in practice this is limited at normal doses.
    • When using mucosal protectors (such as certain “mucus-producing” herbal preparations), combining it with high enzyme dosages can affect the viscosity of the mucus.
    • Enzyme mixes do not directly interfere with CYP450 enzymes or major transporters, but in patients with complex medication intake (e.g. delayed-release preparations) it is prudent to monitor the reaction.
