Lactase Enzyme 360 Caplets Generic Lactaid Original Strength

Reasonable price and effective

This is the second time I've purchased this product from this seller, Park Lane Super Mart. The order was delivered as promised but although it's sold from them the order was fulfilled by Amazon as was the first order and I am a Prime su bscriber so I'd expect to receive my order 2 days from ordering. The bottles are sealed and they were securely wrapped together for shipping. I placed the order 12/26/18 and the expiration is September, 2020.I make sure any lactase enzyme product I buy is 9,000 FCC lactase units because that is the usual dose per my doctor. I've known I'm lactose intolerant for over 10 years so I know what works and doesn't as well as what dairy products need only 1 tablet and which ones have a higher lactose content and therefore need 2 or 3 tablets. I also know that if I continue eating a dairy product beyond 15 or 20 minutes I need to take another dose. I've wondered why the directions on this product say to take 3 tablets except that it's because some products have only 3,000 FCC lactase per tablet so I'd need to take 3 of them to equal the minimum dose I'd need to be effective.

I typically need somewhere around 6 lactase pills of 9,000 FCC units to make it through a meal with a near guarantee I won’t need to destroy a bathroom afterward. Whenever I order lactase, I always look for the 9,000 FCC units. I saw it on these, but didn’t notice that the serving size is 3 pills. After a prolonged period of destroying bathrooms and nearly becoming convinced I needed to see a medical professional, I noticed the issue. I’d been taking 1/3 the dosage I usually need. With these pills at 1/3 strength I’d have needed 18 (!!!!!) pills with each meal. That is utterly ridiculous. For someone whose mildly lactose intolerant it might be okay, but for the amount of enzyme I need to be able to process dairy, this is a no-go. I greatly prefer not having to tear open a ton of individually wrapped pills, but I can’t take that many in one go. I already take 2-3 in one swallow out of impatience and end up choking about 5% of the time, and I don’t have the patience or fortitude to deal with this low dosage.

I can eat pizza, which was the aim.

My daughter has lactose intolerance and buying the lactose free milk is very expensive.My pediatrician recommend this brand to me for her and it has worked out wonderfully!She isn’t crouched over saying her tummy hurts. She doesn’t have diarrhea. She eats cereal with regular milk and drinks it just fine with two of these.Great price! Happy mama!

I got a roommate recently who told me she was Lactose intolerant. I found out that means stinky poo & farts. I thought that was just a milk thing.Anyway, we both love cheese, cottage cheese, ice cream, milk, sour cream & yogurt. She takes them all the time to be more ladylike. I don't take them, because it doesn't really bother me. But we've bought a bunch of these bottles over the last two years, and I guess we'll keep buying them. Ladies wanna be ladylike, I guess.

I prefer our grocery stores low-fat cottage cheese, which is really exceptionally good. But it does seem to have more lactose than my stomach sometimes will agree with. I can chew one or two of these tablets and eat cottage cheese or drink a glass of milk if no lactose-free milk is available. If you love dairy products but they don't love you this is a good assist.

They make this try to sound like a good deal. IT IS NOT. It is 1/3 strength, dosage is 3 pills not just 1. I keep wondering why it wasn’t working for me, I was only taking one pill with dairy and that is not sufficient. Cost here on Amazon is really high! I found full Fast Acting strength a much better deal at Sam's Club. Do research and find fast acting strength for best results and prices.
