Description
IndicationsÂ
Lactaid Fast Act Caplets are enzyme supplements indicated for individuals with lactose intolerance, a condition that impairs the digestion of lactose (sugar) found in dairy products due to inadequate production of the lactase enzyme (responsible for breaking down lactose).Â
Lactaid Fast Act Caplets contain lactase and function by breaking down lactose into easily absorbable sugars (glucose and galactose). This action helps prevent gas, bloating, and diarrhea associated with dairy consumption.Â
Uses and DosageÂ

Refrain from consuming Lactaid Fast Act Caplets too soon or too long after a dairy-containing meal, as this may diminish its effectiveness.Â
