Efficacy & effects

Improvement of digestive symptoms such as loss of appetite

  • Loss of appetite
  • decreased appetite
View approved original text

Loss of appetite, or a decrease in appetite, mainly occurs due to improper digestive functions, leading to symptoms of stagnation in the stomach or tendency towards gastric discomfort. In such cases, treatment that aids digestion and enhances gastric function is required. Medications that promote gastric motility and assist with nutrient absorption are used to alleviate these symptoms. Additionally, by reinforcing physical strength and improving overall health status, they assist in the recovery of appetite. This medication is used to normalize gastric function and improve symptoms of loss of appetite.
