A member asked:
If my 11 month old had a reaction to whole milk -runny stool and more excezma than usual can i introduce lactose free homo milk? is it safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe not: The reactions that you describe are more likely related to cow's milk protein allergy, not to lactose intolerance. Lactose free milk still has cow's milk protein in it. Please see your child's pediatrician to discuss your plan before beginning it.
