Galantase (beta-galactosidase) treatment in pediatric practice.
The authors diagnosed lactose malabsorption by the breath hydrogen analysis in 11 premature and mature babies, in 16 infants and in 28 children between the ages of 3-18 years. All patients were treated with Galantase (beta-galactosidase). According to the results, Galantase is very effective in splitting of lactose of breast-milk, cow-milk and artificial formulas. Pathological hydrogen increase was not detected during the treatment.
