Protecting Your Child’s Future Starts with Early Detection
As a parent in South Africa, nothing matters more than your child’s health and wellbeing. The Galactosemia Screening Blood Test provides the reassurance and early intervention that could make all the difference in your child’s development. This essential screening detects a rare but serious genetic condition that affects how your baby processes milk sugars – a concern that every caring parent should address proactively.
Understanding Galactosemia Screening
Galactosemia is a genetic disorder where the body cannot properly process galactose, a sugar found in all milk products including breast milk and formula. Our advanced Beutler Fluorescence Spot Test accurately measures enzyme activity to identify this condition early, before symptoms become severe. This non-invasive blood test provides clear, reliable results that guide appropriate dietary management and treatment.
Who Should Consider This Essential Screening?
This test is particularly important for:
- Newborns showing feeding difficulties or vomiting after milk consumption
- Infants with unexplained jaundice or liver enlargement
- Babies with family history of metabolic disorders
- Children experiencing failure to thrive or developmental delays
- Any infant as part of comprehensive newborn screening
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Child’s Health
Early diagnosis through galactosemia screening can prevent serious complications including:
- Liver damage and cirrhosis
- Cataracts and vision problems
- Developmental delays and learning difficulties
- Life-threatening infections
- Long-term neurological damage
With proper early intervention and dietary management, children with galactosemia can lead healthy, normal lives. The ZAR 300 investment in this screening could save thousands in future medical costs and, more importantly, protect your child’s quality of life.
