| | Lactase treated feeds to promote growth and feeding tolerance in preterm infants |
 | | Lactase is the last of the major intestinal disaccharidases to develop in preterm infants. | | | Weight gain (g/day) on day 14 after study entry was higher in the lactase treated feeds group [MD 2.7 g/day (95% CI -1.47, 6.87)] and on study exit it was higher in the lactase treated feeds group [MD 2.2 g/day (95% CI -0.98, 5.38)] (neither of these were statistically significant). | | | Further studies should include the most immature preterm infants (24-25 weeks gestation) as the lactase levels in the intestinal tract are even lower in that group of infants. |

| | This is a temporary condition that's common in the first few weeks of life and may even persist for several months. | | | That said, if your otherwise healthy newborn has very watery stools and is passing a lot of gas, he may have what is known as functional lactase deficiency, which means that he's not yet able to completely digest lactose. | | | Finally, some babies become temporarily lactose intolerant after a gastrointestinal illness or taking a course of antibiotics, which can damage the lining of a normal digestive tract and render it unable to produce as much lactase as usual for a few days or even a few weeks. |
