I have been taking Wobenzym.

Then I found those Medizym.

Now at first glance, these seem to have the same components.  Even the dosages are the same.  But I wonder, is Rutoside trihydrate** (Rutin) Sophora japonica the same as Rutosid*** Sophora japonica?

 

Ok so anyway, what's up with the quantities being different.  The mg are the same, but the units are entirely different.  Can anyone convert these?  I searched online for how to convert them and found:

 

Protease HUT, USP, SAP   1 HUT = approx. 6.5 USP Amylase DU 1 DU = approx. 48 USP Lipase FIP, LU, FCCLU 

1FIP = approx. 2.5 LU/FCCLU No conversion available to USP

But this didn't help.

 

Before, I found this.

Flavenzym.

 

At first glance it looks the same as Wobenzym.  But then, wait a minute, what's that?  120mcg of Papain instead of 180mg?  Not a typo.

 

Does anyone know how to compare the amounts in the first two?

Guys, I am confused.  A spokesperson for Vitacost told me that the strength is the FIP and that 492 FIP of papain at 120mcg is the same as 492 FIP of papain at 180mg, this seems counterintuitive to me so can anyone verify?
