Hello! My baby is five months old and has lactose intolerance. What kind of formula is good for them?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Lactose intolerance is often caused by a lack of lactase in the baby's body, which prevents lactose from being digested and absorbed by the body. For babies with this condition, it is recommended to temporarily stop breastfeeding or other dairy products and switch to lactose-free formula milk or soy-based formula milk. If the child's condition is not severe and there are no issues with breastfeeding, it is best to continue breastfeeding.
