Has anyone had trouble with prescription medications containing hidden
lactose as a binder come filler?
I am milk protein allergic but I exhibit only symptoms of intolerance when
it comes to lactose. (I was in a double blind drug trial where I was taking
a daily tablet which was later revealed to be a lactose based placebo.) The
lactose caused the classic symptom of excessive flatulence but without the
usual severe allergic reaction.
I have since had trouble locating information on which medications contain
lactose as there doesn't seem to be a requirement to list lactose as an
*active* ingredient of drugs in the reference books used by my medical
provider.
