HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Enzyme 17 by Organixx
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.
What’s inside
Low disclosure
Enzyme 17 contains 18 active ingredients, most of them digestive enzymes. The blend includes amylase, glucoamylase, and invertase (which break down carbohydrates); proteases in three forms (which break down proteins); lipase (which breaks down fats); lactase (which breaks down milk sugar); cellulase and hemicellulase (which break down fiber); alpha-galactosidase (which breaks down complex sugars); peptidase (which breaks down peptides); phytase (which breaks down phytic acid); bromelain (a pineapple enzyme); pectinase (which breaks down pectin); beta-glucanase (which breaks down beta-glucans); malt diastase (which breaks down starch); and AstraZyme (a proprietary blend).
The product also contains inactive ingredients: cellulose, water, and rice extract.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
The evidence for most of these enzymes isn't well established in the data we hold. Lactase is rated effective for lactose intolerance—if you have trouble digesting milk sugar, this ingredient may help.
For the others—lipase, bromelain, and phytase—the data shows insufficient evidence to rate them for their intended uses. Protease, cellulase, hemicellulase, alpha-galactosidase, and several other ingredients in the blend have no effectiveness ratings on file.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Most of these enzymes are generally well tolerated by adults. Protease (three forms in this product) and lipase may occasionally cause digestive upset or allergic reactions, though serious side effects are rare.
Bromelain may cause diarrhea, flatulence, gastric upset, headache, or (rarely) allergic reactions. A very small number of people have reported allergic reactions to protease or phytase from airborne exposure in occupational settings, though this is uncommon with oral supplement use.
Lactase is generally well tolerated when used as directed. During pregnancy, the safety data advises against bromelain and the protease ingredients unless prescribed by your doctor.
Lipase and phytase have limited safety data in pregnancy—talk with your doctor before regular use. Lactase is likely safe in pregnancy.
For breastfeeding, there's little data for most of these enzymes; check with your healthcare provider before use.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs (anticoagulants or antiplatelet medications) are the main concern with this product—bromelain may increase your bleeding risk (Moderate severity). Tetracycline antibiotics may have their levels increased by bromelain, though clinical evidence is mixed (Minor severity).
Check your exact medications with the search tool before you start.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product may help with carbohydrate, protein, fat, and fiber digestion if your digestive system needs support. If you take blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, or tetracycline antibiotics, check with your pharmacist before starting—bromelain may interact with them.
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should talk with their doctor or pharmacist first. Most adults tolerate it well, though digestive upset is possible.

For each ingredient in Enzyme 17 with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Bromelain
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.
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.
