Market Dynamics

Lactose Intolerance treatment is a medical condition identified by lactase (lactose digesting enzyme) deficiency within the patient’s body. As a result, lactose remains intact and unabsorbed producing various ill-effects such as flatulence, bloating, abdominal pains, and others. There are four types of lactose intolerance, namely, primary lactase deficiency, secondary lactase deficiency, congenital lactase deficiency, and developmental lactase deficiency. Secondary lactase deficiency mainly occurs due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastroenteritis, Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis, celiac disease, chemotherapy, and antibiotics. As per the study suggested by the Journal of Health, Population, and Nutrition in 2017, the prevalence of Lactose Intolerance treatment was significantly higher in IBS-D patients than in healthy individuals. In this study, some eligible IBS-D patients and healthy individuals were enrolled. In the enrolled individuals, lactose malabsorption was diagnosed by a lactose hydrogen breath test (HBT), and lactose intolerance-related symptoms were monitored for eight hours following lactose administration. It was found that the prevalence of lactose malabsorption was 72% in IBS patients and 60% in healthy individuals.
