Does Lactaid Pill Cause Vomiting,diaherrea,tching And Bloating?

I am somewhat lactose intolerant. I took the lactaid pill before I ate dairy, for about a week. I didn t realize it was the pill that was making me so sick. I was vomiting frequently, bad diaherrea, intense itching, and very bad bloating. I couldn t eat very well, and lost 4 pounds in a week. I stopped this enzyme pill, and I was back to my normal self. Everyone told me they never heard of this, but I was so sick from that lactaid pill. Did you hear of any other people with this problem? Thank you.

Hello!

Thank you for the query.

You may be the only one person on the earth who has such reaction and still it will be possible. Its because every person is so much different and can have different reaction to everything including mentioned pill. Please note that pill contains intestinal bacteria which can make you sick due to allergy. Pill is also build of shell, which is always made of something. This can be allergic factor as well.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
