But is it possible to combine medication and lactase supplementation without adverse effects? LACTOLERANCE will help you to clarify the compatibility of medication and food supplements in the case of lactose intolerance.<\/p>\n
Medicines, lactose and lactase: information you need to know<\/h2>\n
Good news for those who are lactose intolerant: There are no drugs specifically incompatible with lactase supplementation.<\/strong> Because it is naturally produced in the intestine, the enzyme lactase is considered safe and well tolerated by the body, with no known side effects. Even in the event of an overdose, the body eliminates the excess lactase itself, without any health consequences.<\/p>\n As with any new dietary habit, however, it is advisable to seek the advice of a health professional before starting oral lactase supplementation, particularly in cases of diabetes or pregnancy. Lactase-based food supplements are not recommended for people with galactosemia, a rare genetic disease.<\/p>\n Note also that around 20% of the medicines contain lactose<\/a> as an excipient. In France, 100% contraceptive pills are also formulated with lactose, as are 100% homeopathic granules. Finally, in some cases, certain medical treatments can lead to temporary or even permanent lactose intolerance.<\/p>\n In this context, supplementation with the enzyme lactase is particularly beneficial for people with lactose intolerance who need to take medication.<\/p>\n Although not incompatible, taking medicines and lactase-based food supplements do require a few precautions to help you combine health and well-being.<\/p>\n If your intolerance is demonstrated by a breath test<\/a> or a tolerance test (the two diagnostic methods covered by the French social security system)<\/strong>If you are suffering from lactose deficiency, you should first talk to your doctor about it, so that he or she can avoid prescribing you medicines containing lactose. You can also talk to your pharmacist to take even more precautions. They can set an alert on their computer to prescribe only lactose-free treatments when you visit the pharmacy.<\/p>\n You can also contact a dietician for professional advice on your daily diet.<\/p>\n Reduce or eliminate the digestive problems caused by your food intolerance in complete confidence thanks to oral supplementation with the enzyme lactase. Proven effective for over 30 years, this solution compensates for the absence of curative treatment by reactivating lactase production.
