A member asked:
What is a normal amount of lactase you can take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The usual dose of lactase you need depends on why you’re taking it. The recommended maximum is 18,000 units per dose up to 3 times per day. Most products have 3,000 to 9,000 units per tablet, so you’ll need to know how much the product you’re taking contains. If you need help figuring out the dose, do not hesitate to speak to a pharmacist or physician.
