Active ingredients

The drug HELOPANFLAT contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):

1 Pancreas (extract)
UNII FQ3DRG0N5K - PANCRELIPASE

Pancreatin when reaching the small intestine disintegrates (at pH>5.5) to release enzymes with lipolytic, amylolytic and proteolytic activity to ensure the digestion of fats, starches and proteins. The products of pancreatic digestion are then either absorbed directly, or following further hydrolysis by intestinal enzymes.

2 Simethicone
UNII 92RU3N3Y1O - DIMETHICONE

Simethicone is a chemically inert, non-systemic gastric defoaming agent that works by altering the elasticity of interfaces of mucus-embedded bubbles in the gastrointestinal tract. The gas bubbles are thus broken down or coalesced and in this form gas is more easily eliminated through eructation or passing flatus.
