Megalase Syrup 125 ml

Megalase Syrup 125 ml

Description:

Megalase Syrup 125 ml is a systemic anti-inflammatory medicine containing the enzyme alpha-amylase, manufactured by Amoun. It is an enzymatic preparation with anti-edematous and anti-inflammatory activity, designed to help reduce inflammatory edema and associated pain and swelling. Megalase works by hydrolyzing polysaccharides in the inflammatory exudate, making it more fluid, and by inhibiting abnormal capillary permeability, thereby decreasing the leakage of fluids from blood vessels and promoting faster edema resorption. It is suitable for infants, children, and adults under medical supervision.

Indications:

• Adjunct treatment of inflammatory edema of various origins (e.g., post-traumatic, post-surgical, inflammatory conditions of soft tissues) as prescribed by a physician.
• Reduction of swelling and edema associated with acute or subacute inflammatory processes.
• Helps relieve discomfort, tension, and pain related to tissue edema and localized inflammation.
• Used as a supportive therapy to enhance resorption of inflammatory exudates and improve local circulation in affected tissues.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Alpha-amylase – enzymatic anti-edematous and anti-inflammatory agent.
  • 5 ml syrup contain: 1000 U.CEIP alpha-amylase
  • 10 ml syrup contain: 2000 U.CEIP alpha-amylase
