Clinical Context from Research
Recent clinical evidence supports this dosing schedule. In a 2025 randomized controlled trial comparing enzymatic debridement agents, patients received 2 tablets of Chymoral Forte (trypsin-chymotrypsin) orally three times daily for 7 days postoperatively, demonstrating significant improvements in wound healing parameters including reduction in edema, inflammation, and pain (>85% reduction in pain scores) 2. This three-times-daily dosing regimen aligns with the FDA-approved labeling.
