Ultra Daily Enzymes Ingredients & Drug Interactions
by Altrum
What is this page for?
First and foremost: checking Ultra Daily Enzymes against your medications. The heart of this page is the interaction checker and the full interaction report — how this product’s ingredients may interact with prescription and over-the-counter medicines you may be taking.
Around that, we add a pharmacist’s high-level view of the product as a whole — what’s inside, the evidence for its stated use, how transparent the label is, and what safety data exists — so you can see the full picture in one place. It’s educational information from our licensed clinical databases and the clinical staff at HelloPharmacist — not medical advice — and we don’t sell or endorse products. Our editorial policy
Ultra Daily Enzymes is a dietary supplement by Altrum with 15 active ingredients. Its ingredients are commonly taken for digestion and bloating, muscle soreness and exercise recovery, inflammation and swelling.We don’t currently list a known drug interaction for its mapped ingredients — but that doesn’t guarantee none exist, so always confirm with your pharmacist.
HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Ultra Daily Enzymes 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.
What’s inside
Partial disclosure
Ultra Daily Enzymes is a capsule containing 15 active ingredients — mostly digestive enzymes that break down different types of food. Protease breaks down proteins, lipase handles fats, lactase helps digest milk sugar (lactose), and the others target starches, fiber, and other carbohydrates.
The formula also includes two proprietary enzyme blends and a prebiotic blend whose individual components aren't fully named on the label. Two inactive ingredients — plant fiber and a gelatin capsule — act as fillers and the capsule itself.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
The evidence for most ingredients in this formula is limited. Lactase is rated effective for lactose intolerance — that one's solid.
For the others — protease, lipase, and phytase — the research on how well they work for digestive complaints like indigestion (dyspepsia) or inflammatory bowel disease is insufficient to draw firm conclusions. The remainder of the formula's ingredients don't have effectiveness ratings on file.
That doesn't mean they don't work; it means the evidence we hold isn't strong enough to say one way or the other.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Protease, lipase, and lactase are generally well tolerated in adults when used as directed. Rare occupational exposures to protease and phytase dust have triggered allergic responses like asthma and sinus inflammation in workers, but that's not a typical concern for someone taking a capsule by mouth.
Lipase in premature infants (when added to formula or breast milk) has caused some digestive side effects; this product is not intended for that use. We could not check the safety of amylase, cellulase, peptidase, invertase, glucoamylase, diastase, alpha-galactosidase, beta-glucanase, hemicellulase, FOS, or IMO because we don't hold data on them.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check. That said, several active enzymes in this product — amylase, cellulase, peptidase, invertase, glucoamylase, diastase, alpha-galactosidase, beta-glucanase, hemicellulase, FOS, and IMO — we could not verify.
Use the interaction checker on this page to search any medications you take before starting.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
If you have trouble digesting lactose, this enzyme blend may help — lactase is proven for that. For general digestive support, the evidence is weaker.
No interactions with medications are documented for the ingredients we reviewed, but several enzymes in the formula we couldn't check, so run your own medications through the tool before you start. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist to see if this formula makes sense for your situation.
