Can Lactaid be taken by children?

Asked 6 months ago
Yes, Lactaid can be safely taken by children. Lactose intolerance can affect individuals of all ages, including children. Lactaid is a digestive supplement that contains lactase, an enzyme that breaks down lactose in milk and dairy products. It helps children with lactose intolerance to digest lactose effectively and avoid discomfort or digestive problems after consuming lactose-containing foods. Lactaid offers specifically formulated products for children, such as chewable tablets or drops, making it easier to administer to younger individuals. However, it is always advisable to consult with a healthcare professional or pediatrician before introducing any new supplement or medication to a child's routine. They can provide personalized advice based on the child's specific needs and digestive health.
