Pharmacological action
The drug Festal compensates for the insufficiency of exocrine pancreatic function due to pancreatin, and biliary function of the liver due to the bile component. Festal has a proteolytic, amylolytic and lipolytic effect.
Pancreatin-containing enzymes: amylase, lipase and protease facilitate the digestion of carbohydrates, fats and proteins, which contributes to their more complete absorption in the small intestine. And in this regard, Festal is practically no different from other enzyme preparations.
The presence of bile acids in the Festivala gives the drug additional opportunities for the correction of biliary insufficiency, which is often associated with chronic pancreatitis. Bile extract acts choleretic, facilitates the absorption of fats and fat-soluble vitamins A, E and K, promotes the release of lipase by the pancreas.
The enzyme hemicellulase promotes the breakdown of plant fiber, which also improves digestive processes, reduces the formation of gases in the intestines.
Indications
insufficiency of exocrine pancreatic function in chronic pancreatitis combined with biliary insufficiency due to various pathological conditions, clinically manifested by a violation of digestion, flatulence, tendency to constipation, as part of combination therapy for: diffuse liver diseases – alcoholic and toxic liver diseases liver cirrhosis
large loss of bile acids (in patients after cholecystectomy) impaired bile acid circulation from, observed with biliary dyskinesia, dysbiosis, malabsorption, impaired neurohumoral regulation of bile formation and bile secretion in chronic gastrointestinal diseases – chronic gastritis, chronic duodenitis, chronic cholecystitis
to improve digestion in patients with normal gastrointestinal function in case of errors in nutrition, as well as in violation of chewing function, forced prolonged immobilization, sedentary lifestyle
preparation for x-ray and ultrasound examination of abdominal organs.
