LACTAID PILLS

HI AGAIN!!

I just have a random question. It does not actually apply to me now, but I have been wondering about it for some time now. A few months ago I purchased the walmart equivalent of lactaid, to see if it would help when I ate dairy products. I took the pills as directed and ate ice cream and felt great! no gas, no diarrhea, none of the usual symptoms I would normally experience if I had ate the ice cream without the pill.

I continued taking it one or two more times and found that they worked well.

However, randomly one day I took them before eating one single tiny little slice of cheese pizza, and two hours later I spent the entire night puking my brains out. I was driving home and felt naseaous. I had to stop at a mcdonalds and puke. absolutely disgusting. luckily my boyfriend was working at a liquor store a quarter or a mile down the road where I spent the night in the bathroom, because there was not enough time between puking to even make the five minute trip home. I figured I had a stomach flu, or perhaps food poisoning and forgot about it.

Then about two weeks later, the next time I took lactaid, I made lasagna and again took the lactiad pills. Again, exactly two hours later I was violently puking and could not even leave the bathroom.

I finally then put two and two together and decided that it must have been the lactaid pills, because both times I puked within two hours of taking them. Since I have eaten dairy products without the pills and have not thrown up.
I was just wondering if anyone else had similar experiences with lactose intolerance pills, because I find it strange that they worked at first, and then caused me to throw up. oh, and I'm not a puker, infact it is my least favorite activity so its not like much makes me puke!
