Kotase Tablets – Systemic Enzyme Therapy for Inflammation & Faster Healing
Kotase Tablet is a specialized systemic enzyme therapy designed to manage swelling, inflammation, and tissue trauma. Unlike traditional painkillers (NSAIDs), Kotase utilizes the power of proteolytic enzymes to promote natural recovery.
What is the work of Kotase Tablet?
Kotase works by breaking down protein deposits (like fibrin) that accumulate at injury or surgical sites. This action helps reduce edema (swelling), improves local blood circulation, and allows the body to reabsorb trapped fluids more efficiently. It is widely used in Nigeria for:
- Post-surgical swelling and recovery.
- Sports injuries, sprains, and muscle strains.
- Internal and external hemorrhoids.
- Sinusitis and other inflammatory conditions.
Active Ingredients
Each sugar-coated tablet contains:
- Bromelain (40mg / 20,000 units): A natural enzyme from pineapple that reduces inflammation and bruising.
- Crystalline Trypsin (1mg / 2,500 units): A protein-digesting enzyme that supports tissue repair and reduces pain.
Is Kotase an Antibiotic?
It is important to note that Kotase is NOT an antibiotic. It does not treat bacterial infections. Instead, it is an anti-inflammatory enzyme preparation used to manage the physical symptoms of inflammation and trauma.
Dosage & Administration
For optimal effectiveness, Kotase should be taken on an empty stomach (at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals).
- Adult Dosage: Typically 1 to 2 tablets taken 2 to 3 times daily, or as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
- Swallow the tablet whole with water; do not crush or chew.
Precautions
- Consult a doctor if you have bleeding disorders or are taking blood-thinning medications.
- Avoid use if you have a known allergy to pineapples or digestive enzymes.
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, speak with a GoMed pharmacist or your doctor before use.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
