HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Enzyme Complete DPP-IV with Isogest by Kirkman
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 Complete DPP-IV with Isogest contains 15 active ingredients, mostly digestive enzymes. The main ones are papain and bromelain, which break down protein; lipase, which breaks down fat; lactase, which breaks down milk sugar; and a mix of others — phytase, acid-stable protease, protease 6.0, and several carbohydrate-digesting enzymes (amylase, alpha-galactosidase, invertase) — plus isogest, which we could not check.
The capsule itself contains hypromellose, microcrystalline cellulose, maltodextrin, and water as inactive ingredients.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
The data we hold shows evidence only for lactase, which is effective for lactose intolerance — meaning it helps people digest milk sugar if they don't produce enough of their own lactase enzyme. For papain, bromelain, lipase, phytase, the protease ingredients, and the other enzymes in this product, the evidence isn't established in our data.
Effectiveness for conditions like cancer, muscle soreness, burns, inflammatory bowel disease, and many others is rated as having insufficient reliable evidence to rate.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Papain is generally tolerated as a food but supplements may irritate the digestive tract and cause allergic reactions in sensitive people — symptoms can include itchy watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea. High doses orally may be unsafe and rarely can cause severe stomach inflammation or esophageal perforation.
Bromelain is generally well tolerated short-term with the most common side effects being diarrhea, flatulence, stomach upset, and headache; allergic reactions are possible. Lactase is likely safe in pregnancy and lactation.
Papain is possibly unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided; bromelain should be avoided in both pregnancy and breastfeeding. For the other enzymes — lipase, phytase, and the proteases — there is limited or no safety data in pregnancy and breastfeeding, so check with your doctor or pharmacist before regular use if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before you start, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take warfarin (Coumadin) or any other blood thinner or antiplatelet drug — papain and bromelain may increase bleeding risk. If you take tetracycline antibiotics, bromelain might raise their levels, though human evidence is mixed.
No interactions are documented for the other ingredients we could check, but several we could not check for interactions at all.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This is a digestive enzyme blend best suited for people who want help breaking down protein, fat, and carbohydrates — and for those with lactose intolerance, lactase is proven effective. If you take warfarin or any blood thinner or antiplatelet medication, talk with your pharmacist or doctor before starting it, because papain and bromelain may increase bleeding risk.
Pregnant or breastfeeding people should also check with their doctor first.

Enzyme Complete DPP-IV with Isogest by Kirkman Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Enzyme Complete DPP-IV with Isogest by Kirkman does interact with medications, primarily through its papain and bromelain content.
The most serious concern is papain's moderate interaction with warfarin (Coumadin), a blood thinner — papain may increase warfarin's effects and side effects, and one case report documented a patient whose blood-thinning level (INR) jumped to 7.4 after taking a papaya supplement. Bromelain also carries a moderate interaction with anticoagulant and antiplatelet drugs (blood thinners and anti-clotting medications), as it may thin the blood further and raise bleeding risk; one case report noted minor bruising when bromelain was taken with naproxen.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Bromelain also has a minor interaction with tetracycline antibiotics, which laboratory research suggests it might increase — though a human study found no difference in tetracycline levels when the antibiotic was taken with bromelain. Altogether, these interactions span 141 individual medications.
Several other ingredients — cellulase, xylanase, amylase, alpha-galactosidase, peptidase, diastase, and invertase — we could not check for interactions because we hold no data for them. Lactase, lipase, phytase, and the protease ingredients showed no documented interactions in our data, but that's not a guarantee none exist.
