While there are Rx enzymes, there are also OTC options. For example,
bromelain is available over the counter and has a good reputation for
reducing inflammation/engorgement. In fact, many, if not most, enzymes have
anti-inflammatory properties making them useful in cases of inflammation.
There is published research on the anti-inflammatory/engorgement properties
of enzymes.
One benefit of Rx enzymes is that they often have an enteric coating so that
they survive the stomach and enter the small intestines to work their magic
more potently. 
Oversupply is often connected to inflammation so it is fabulous to come at
it from that angle. In addition to enzymes, anti-inflammatory diets and
other supplements can help too. If you fin more out on enzymes and
oversupply will you email me offline or post here? This is a topic I have
great interest in, thanks.
