Can I take anything to help me digest lactose?

You can buy pills or drops at a drug or grocery store to help you digest lactose. They are

• Pills that you chew right before eating foods with lactose. These pills are called lactase enzyme caplets.
  
  
• A liquid that you add to milk before drinking. The liquid is called lactase enzyme drops.
  
  

You can also drink a special milk with less lactose in it. You can buy this milk at the grocery store. It is called lactose-reduced milk.
