Serratiopeptidase (10 mg)

Serratiopeptidase or Serrapeptase is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the non-pathogenic Enterobacterium Serratia E15 found in silkworms. Serratiopeptidase is a proteolytic enzyme used to reduce inflammation, has antiademic, analgesic, fibrinolytic, and caseinolytic properties.

Mechanism of Action

This anti-inflammatory proteolytic enzyme binds to alpha-2-macroglobulin in the blood, which helps mask its antigenicity. It is then slowly transferred to the site of inflammation. Serratiopeptidase hydrolyzes bradykinin, histamine, serotonin which is responsible for edema. It reduces inflammation, improves microcirculation and expulsion of sputum. Due to this action, serratiopeptidase has anti-inflammatory, antilipidemic, and fibrinolytic activity and acts rapidly on local inflammation.
