Kotase Tablet – Anti-Inflammatory Enzyme for Swelling & Faster Healing

Kotase Tablet is a specialized systemic enzyme therapy registered in Nigeria to manage swelling, inflammation, and tissue trauma. Unlike traditional NSAID painkillers, Kotase utilizes proteolytic enzymes to promote natural recovery by breaking down protein deposits that cause congestion at injury sites.

What is the work of Kotase Tablet? (Uses)

Kotase is primarily used to reduce edema (swelling) and inflammation. It helps improve local blood circulation and allows the body to reabsorb trapped fluids more efficiently. Common uses in Nigeria include:

• Post-surgical recovery: Reducing swelling after dental, orthopedic, or general surgery.
• Traumatic injuries: Management of fractures, sprains, strains, and hematomas (bruises).
• Inflammatory conditions: Relief for internal and external hemorrhoids (piles) and sinusitis.
• Tissue repair: Promoting faster healing of soft tissue injuries.

Active Ingredients

Each sugar-coated tablet contains:

• Bromelain (40mg): A natural enzyme derived from pineapples with potent anti-inflammatory properties.
• Crystalline Trypsin (1mg): A protein-digesting enzyme that supports tissue repair and reduces pain.

Is Kotase an Antibiotic?

No, Kotase is NOT an antibiotic. It does not treat bacterial infections. It is an anti-inflammatory enzyme preparation used to manage physical symptoms like swelling and inflammation. If you have an infection, your doctor may prescribe Kotase alongside an antibiotic to help the antibiotic reach the site of infection more effectively.

Dosage & How to Take Kotase

For the best results, Kotase should be taken as directed by your healthcare professional.

• Adult Dosage: Typically 1 to 2 tablets, taken 3 to 4 times daily.
• Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not crush or chew.
• Timing: While some suggest taking it after meals, many practitioners recommend taking proteolytic enzymes on an empty stomach (1 hour before or 2 hours after meals) for maximum systemic absorption.

Precautions & Side Effects

• Allergies: Do not use if you are allergic to pineapples or digestive enzymes.
• Bleeding Disorders: Consult your doctor if you have a bleeding disorder or are on blood-thinning medication (like Warfarin).
• Pregnancy: If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a GoMed pharmacist or your doctor before use.
• Side Effects: Generally well-tolerated, though some may experience mild gastrointestinal upset or diarrhea.
