Can Lactaid be taken by children?

Lactaid is generally safe for children who are lactose intolerant. It contains lactase, an enzyme that helps break down lactose, the sugar found in milk and dairy products. By providing this enzyme, Lactaid allows children to enjoy dairy without experiencing the discomfort that comes from lactose intolerance. However, it is essential for parents or guardians to consult with a healthcare professional before introducing Lactaid or any dietary supplements into their child's routine, especially if the child has specific health issues or dietary concerns. It is also important to adhere to dosage guidelines appropriate for children, as their needs may differ from those of adults. For more information on appropriate usage and any recommendations specific to children, visiting the Lactaid website may provide additional guidance and contact information.
