Pharmacodynamics

The medicine is multicomponent. Its elements are extracted from the organs of cattle intended for slaughter. The drug reflexively stimulates the process of bile biosynthesis, increases the indicators of bile acids inside it, and at the same time promotes the activation of the secretory and motor activity of the gastrointestinal tract, and reduces the values of cholesterol in the blood.

Pancreatic enzymes (such as amylase with trypsin), which are contained in Cholenzym, improve the process of digestion of such elements as carbohydrates with proteins, and in addition, contribute to a more complete adsorption of these elements in the small intestine.

The medicine should be taken after meals, washed down with plain water.
