HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Enzyme 13 by Nature's Bounty

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 30, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 13 of its 13 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Enzyme Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (520 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Enzyme 13 contains 13 active digestive enzymes. Amylase breaks down carbohydrates; papain and bromelain are protein-digesting enzymes (proteases) derived from papaya and pineapple; protease is another protein-digesting enzyme; lipase breaks down fats; and lactase breaks down milk sugar (lactose).

The blend also includes cellulase, invertase, glucoamylase, alpha-galactosidase, xylanase, beta-glucanase, and hemicellulase—all enzymes that help break down plant fibers and complex carbohydrates. The capsule itself is made from vegetable cellulose, with rice flour as an inactive ingredient.

Does it work?

Strong 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
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: digestive health support with enzymes.
  • We looked for evidence on: Dyspepsia, Lactose intolerance, Bloating, Gas, Indigestion.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Lactase is rated "Effective" for Lactose intolerance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lipase is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Dyspepsia.

For most of the conditions this product is used for, the evidence isn't established in the data we hold. Lactase is the one exception: it's rated effective for lactose intolerance, helping people digest milk sugar.

For papain, bromelain, and the other enzymes—covering everything from hay fever and burns to exercise-related muscle soreness—we hold insufficient reliable evidence to rate their effectiveness. That doesn't mean they don't work; it means the studies aren't there yet to confirm or rule it out.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Papain Bromelain Proteolytic Enzymes (proteases) Lipase Lactase

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 5 of the 5 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 5 of 5.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 5 of 5.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Overall, the digestive enzymes in Enzyme 13 are generally well tolerated when used as directed and short-term. Papain and bromelain may irritate the digestive tract or trigger allergic reactions in sensitive people—itching, rash, digestive upset, or in rare cases with high papain doses, severe stomach inflammation or esophageal damage.

Bromelain may also cause diarrhea, gas, or headache. Protease and lipase have similar cautions around digestive upset and allergic reactions, though serious side effects are rare.

For pregnancy, papain is rated possibly unsafe and should be avoided, especially concentrated forms and unripe papaya products. Bromelain and protease are rated not safe during pregnancy.

Lactase is rated likely safe in pregnancy. For breastfeeding, papain and bromelain are best avoided due to insufficient safety data.

Lactase has limited data but acts only in the gut; ask your doctor or pharmacist before regular use. Protease and lipase also have little safety data during breastfeeding—check with your healthcare provider first.

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?
  • 2 of the 5 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Papain, Bromelain.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 141 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.

Check your medications before taking this product if you take warfarin (Coumadin) or other blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs—papain and bromelain may increase bleeding risk. If you take tetracycline antibiotics, bromelain may theoretically raise their levels, though the practical effect is unclear.

If any of these apply, confirm with your own doctor or pharmacist that it's okay to combine them.

Bromelain2 drug types · 141 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Bromelain may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
There is one case report of a patient experiencing minor bruising while taking bromelain with naproxen. Bromelain is thought to have antiplatelet activity. Whether this interaction is of concern with topical bromelain is unclear. Interference with coagulation of burn wounds has been reported in a patient receiving bromelain-based enzymatic debridement. However, observational research has found that topical bromelain debridement is not associated with increases or decreases in laboratory markers of coagulation when compared with surgical debridement.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, bromelain might increase levels of tetracycline antibiotics.
Laboratory research suggests that bromelain might increase the absorption of tetracycline antibiotics. However, a study in healthy adults reported no difference in tetracycline plasma levels when a 500 mg dose was taken with or without bromelain 80 mg.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Bromelain full monograph & interactions

Papain1 drug type · 2 drugs

Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, papain might increase the effects and side effects of warfarin.
In one case report, a patient previously stable on warfarin was found to have an international normalization ratio (INR) of 7.4, which was attributed to ingestion of a supplement containing papain from papaya extract.

Enzyme 13 by Nature's Bounty: Common Questions

Does Enzyme 13 by Nature's Bounty interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Enzyme 13 has a known interaction with 141 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Enzyme 13 contains 13 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.
Does Enzyme 13 work for digestion?
Lactase in this product is rated effective for lactose intolerance specifically. For general digestive support, the evidence on file for the other enzymes—papain, bromelain, protease, lipase, and the rest—is insufficient to confirm or rule out whether they work. Many people use enzyme supplements for digestion, but the science isn't settled yet.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
Papain in this product is rated possibly unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided. Bromelain and protease are rated not safe during pregnancy. Lactase is likely safe. Because this is a blend, it's best to talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you in pregnancy.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
Papain and bromelain are best avoided while breastfeeding because there isn't enough safety data. Lactase acts only in the gut, but safety data is limited; ask your doctor or pharmacist first. Protease and lipase also have little breastfeeding safety data—check with your healthcare provider before using.
What are the side effects?
Most common are digestive upset—diarrhea, gas, cramping, nausea—and allergic reactions in sensitive people, like itching, rash, or watery eyes. Serious side effects are rare but can include severe stomach inflammation or esophageal damage at very high papain doses. Stop and tell your doctor if you have severe symptoms.
Is this safe if I have a digestive condition?
If you have a serious digestive condition, use enzyme supplements only under medical guidance. The data we hold advises this caution, especially for lipase. Talk with your doctor before starting.
What is papain?
Papain is a protein-digesting enzyme (protease) from papaya. In this supplement, it's meant to help break down proteins during digestion.
