I have been strictly avoiding dairy products for the past year due to
nursing my milk allergic son. I may need to soon begin taking a
medicine that contains lactose. Would this be a problem for my son
since it is dairy? Or maybe not because breast milk already has
lactose? I will probably be working on weaning him over the next couple
weeks.
Also, if I've become LI since being off milk, will I be able to handle the
medicine myself? Will the lactase tablets be enough to allow me to
tolerate it?
I found a good article that discusses dairy free while breastfeeding and
resulting LI if anyone's interested at:
