Guest guest Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 Ginny, Where do you live (Europe, NZ, AU, U.S..)? Have you tried the internet to see what is available where you live? Just glancing over your contents it appears to be carb free. Is there a number on the bottle that you can call to make sure? I've bought various brands of digestive enzymes in the Philippines, U.S., and Australia and their contents have not listed any carbs. Except for papaya digestive enzymes, I have usually found digestive enzymes to be carb free. They came in a capsule. To me, a non expert, it looks like you have found a good digestive enzyme. The only concern I would have is that it looks like it has dye or coloring on it. Our daughter seems to sensitive to dyes so we would have to open the capsule and sprinkle it on food being sure to follow up with a lot of water to make sure it does not stay in the mouth. If your daughter is not sensitive to dyes then I wouldn' t worry about it. Rhonda ? My daughter has been complaining of stomach aches and digestive enzymes were suggested as a possible solution. Trouble is, none of the brands suggested seem to be available here (everything has carbs in). I did find one that a pharmacist suggested, but he did not know whether it was carbohydrate free. Can any of you knowledgable people help? It is Spasmo-Canulase by Novartis of Switzerland. Contents: 1 bitab contains - (Core) Cellulasum corresp 0.9U FIP, Pancreatis Pulvis corresp. Amylasum 2100 U Ph. Eur, Lipasum 1200 U Ph Eur, Proteasum 80 U Ph Eur, Dimeticonum 20mg, Natrii Dehydrocholas 20mg, (Outer layer) Metixeni hydrochloridum 1mg, Pepsini pulvis corresp 120 U ph Eur, Dimeticonum 20mg Acidi glutamici hydrochloridum 100mg , excipient (excipients) colorant E127 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 Hi Rhonda Thanks for the info. We live in the Middle East. My next stop was going to be the interent, but I'd much buy it from a local chemist! I'll give it a try and see what happens.
