The liquid substances extracted from medicinal herb at 0.3% concentration cause to stimulate protease activity of pepsin from 11% to 32% in order: frustus evodiarutaecarpa < fructus and sement amoni xanthiodis < rhizoma zingiber officinale < fructus cirtus sp. < radix sausurea galanga < radix coptis sp. < radix. Sausurea lappa or inula helenium. This liquid substances at 0.25% concentration also cause the stimutation of protease activity of pancreatin from 0.6% to 32% in order: Fructus evodia rutaecarpa< rhizoma keampferia galanga < radix comptix sp. < freuctus citrus sp. < rhizoma zingiber officinale < radix sausurea lappa or inula helenium. Only the liquid substances extracted from the Fructus et semen amomi xanthiodis reduce lightly protease activity of pancreatine preparation. The optimal stimulation of the enzyme activity depends on their concentration. The first results may raise a question about the traditional medicine combined with the western medicine in the treatment of digestive diseases.
