HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Daily Enzyme Support by Altrum

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 6 active ingredients.

Daily Enzyme Support contains six active ingredients: three digestive enzymes (Amylase, Protease, and Lipase) that help break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in your food, plus Cellulase (another enzyme we couldn't fully check), and two probiotics—Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium—which are live beneficial bacteria meant to support gut health. The capsule itself is made from vegetable cellulose and gelatin.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“digestive support and healthy digestive system”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Antibiotic-associated diarrhea — rated "Possibly Effective" (Lactobacillus Acidophilus) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Bacterial vaginosis — rated "Possibly Effective" (Lactobacillus Acidophilus) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Helicobacter pylori — rated "Possibly Effective" (Lactobacillus Acidophilus) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Lactobacillus Acidophilus) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for these ingredients is mixed and often limited. Lactobacillus acidophilus has possibly effective data for irritable bowel syndrome, H. pylori infection, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and bacterial vaginosis.

Lipase and Protease don't have enough reliable evidence in our data to rate them for digestive or inflammatory conditions. The effectiveness of Amylase, Cellulase, and Bifidobacterium isn't established in the data we hold.

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Protease and Lipase are generally well tolerated in most adults but may cause digestive upset or allergic reactions in some people. Lactobacillus acidophilus is generally well tolerated in healthy adults and children, though it can occasionally cause mild gas, bloating, or abdominal discomfort.

Rare but serious infections linked to L. acidophilus have been reported in vulnerable patients. Since we hold limited pregnancy and breastfeeding data for Protease and Lipase, and safety during pregnancy hasn't been established for Protease, talk with your doctor before using this product if you're pregnant or nursing.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lactobacillus Acidophilus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 182 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on antibiotic drugs—Lactobacillus acidophilus can reduce how well probiotics work when taken at the same time. No other medication interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Daily Enzyme Support might help if you're looking for digestive enzyme support or probiotics for gut health, particularly if you have irritable bowel syndrome or antibiotic-associated diarrhea. If you take antibiotics, timing matters—your doctor or pharmacist can help you space out the doses so they work better together.

Antibiotic Drugs

Theoretically, taking Lactobacillus acidophilus with antibiotic drugs might decrease the effectiveness of L. acidophilus.
L. acidophilus preparations usually contain live and active organisms. Therefore, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of the organisms. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and L. acidophilus preparations by at least two hours.

Daily Enzyme Support by Altrum: Common Questions

Does Daily Enzyme Support by Altrum interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Daily Enzyme Support has a known interaction with 182 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Daily Enzyme Support contains 6 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this with my antibiotic?
Not at the same time. Antibiotics can kill off the live beneficial bacteria in this supplement, making it less effective. Ask your doctor or pharmacist when to take each one—spacing them out a few hours apart usually helps.
Will this help with my IBS or diarrhea?
Lactobacillus acidophilus in this product has possibly effective evidence for irritable bowel syndrome, H. pylori infection, and antibiotic-associated diarrhea. That said, results vary between people, and you'll want to talk with your doctor about whether it's right for your situation.
What are the digestive enzymes in here for?
Amylase breaks down carbohydrates, Protease breaks down proteins, and Lipase breaks down fats. The idea is to help your body digest food more efficiently, though we don't have strong evidence that supplemental forms work for most digestive conditions.
Can I take this while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Safety data is limited for most of these ingredients during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Protease is best avoided in pregnancy unless prescribed. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you're pregnant or nursing—they can give you personalized advice.
What side effects might I notice?
Gas, bloating, abdominal discomfort, and mild digestive upset are the most common side effects. These are usually uncommon. Rarely, some people have reported rash or itching, or allergic reactions. If you develop signs of infection (fever, severe abdominal pain) after starting, seek medical care right away.
Is this safe for kids?
Lactobacillus acidophilus is generally well tolerated in healthy children, but we don't have specific dosing or safety data for all ingredients in children. Check with your child's doctor or pharmacist before giving it to them.
