Frequently Asked Questions
What does Betaine HCl-Pepsin support?
Betaine HCl-Pepsin combines betaine hydrochloride with pepsin to support stomach acidity, protein digestion, and nutrient absorption. The formula is positioned as GI support and is intended to be taken with meals, when these digestive functions are most relevant.
How should I take Betaine HCl-Pepsin?
Take 1 to 2 capsules with each meal, or use the amount recommended by your health-care practitioner. The directions specifically pair the capsules with meals and do not provide a separate between-meal or bedtime dosing schedule.
How much betaine HCl and pepsin are in a serving?
A two-capsule serving provides 1 g of betaine hydrochloride and 47 mg of pepsin. The pepsin is identified as porcine, so customers avoiding animal-derived ingredients should note that the digestive enzyme comes from a porcine source.
Is it gluten-free and dairy-free?
Yes. This product is described as gluten-free and dairy-free, and the pepsin is specifically described as lactose-free. However, because the pepsin is porcine, the formula is not suitable for customers seeking a completely animal-free digestive supplement.
Should I avoid this product if I have a peptic ulcer?
Yes. It is contraindicated in patients with peptic ulcers. This warning appears alongside the instruction not to take the product out of the capsule, so anyone with a peptic ulcer should not use it.
What other ingredients are included?
The other ingredients are hypromellose derived from cellulose for the capsule, calcium laurate, leucine, and silicon dioxide. These are listed separately from the two active ingredients, betaine hydrochloride and porcine pepsin.
Can I use it during pregnancy?
Yes. If you are pregnant, consult your health-care practitioner before using the product. Product details also allow dosing to be adjusted according to a health-care practitioner’s recommendation rather than requiring everyone to use the same number of capsules.
Can I open the capsules before taking them?
No. The package specifically states not to take the product out of the capsule. Use the capsules intact and take 1 to 2 with each meal, unless your health-care practitioner recommends a different amount.
How should I store the capsules?
Store the bottle tightly sealed in a cool, dry place. Use the product only if the bottle is sealed. These storage and tamper-evident instructions are intended to help protect the capsules between uses.
What are the two main active ingredients?
Betaine hydrochloride is provided at 1 g per two-capsule serving, while pepsin is provided at 47 mg. The formula combines these two ingredients specifically to support stomach acidity, protein digestion, and nutrient absorption.
