Mezim neo 10000 units, intestinal-soluble capsules. Product

Method of administration and dosage

The dose of the drug Mezim neo 10000 is selected individually depending on the severity of the disease, as well as the volume and composition of the food taken.

Unless otherwise indicated, adults are recommended to take 2-4 capsules of Mezim neo 10000 during each meal, swallowing the capsules whole (do not chew), washed down with a sufficient amount of liquid (for example, a glass of water).

If taking an entire capsule is difficult for the patient (for example, in young children or elderly patients), you can pour its contents, for example, into a glass, opening the capsule by separating the lid from the body, and then take the contents (mini-tablets), washing down some liquid or add to liquid food that does not require chewing (for example, applesauce or fruit juice). The mixture of mini-tablets with food or liquid is not subject to storage (take immediately after preparation).

An increase in the dose of the drug should be carried out only under the supervision of a doctor, while focusing on the dynamics of symptoms (for example, a decrease in steatorrhea, a decrease in abdominal pain).

It is not recommended to exceed the daily dose of enzymes amounting to 15000-20000 lipase units / kg of body weight.

The duration of the course of treatment is determined by the doctor and depends on the course of the disease.

For children, the dosage regimen and duration of treatment are set by the doctor, depending on the severity of the disease and the composition of the food at the rate of 500-1000 lipase units / kg of body weight of the child for each meal.

Use in cystic fibrosis

The dose of Mezim neo 10000 depends on body weight and should be at the beginning of treatment 1000 lipase units / kg per meal for children under 4 years old, and 500 lipase units / kg during each meal for children over 4 years old.

The dose of the drug should be selected individually depending on the severity of the disease, under the control of steatorrhea and the support of an optimal diet. In most patients, the dose should be no more than 10,000 lipase units / kg of body weight per day or 4,000 lipase units/g of consumed fat.
