摘要
A method for diagnosing colic type in an infant exhibiting one or more symptoms characteristic of unspecified colic comprises the steps of optionally measuring in said infant at least one parameter indicative of unspecified colic; orally administering a liquid formulation of a beta -D-galactosidase enzyme separately, simultaneously with or sequentially to a lactose-containing feed; and determining at selected intervals of time any alteration in said infant of colic-type symptoms. An improvement in said symptoms of at least 50 % or greater is indicative of lactose-based intolerance. Where the enzyme formulation fails to alleviate the symptoms of unspecified colic, the infant is then placed on a diet of low allergen feed. An improvement in said symptoms of 50 % or more is indicative of allergen-based colic requiring maintenance on a low allergen-based diet. A failure to respond to such a low allergen-based diet is indicative of a need of further investigation, because the symptoms may be due to low-level infection or a metabolic error.
