Yes. The only "Lact-" ingredient that is derived from milk is lactose.

Um.. No. That answer is just blatantly wrong.

Lactose (milk sugar) MUST be added to the bacterial fermentation broth for the microorganisms to produce lactase (the enzyme that breaks down lactose molecules). Lactase is made using milk. So NO, lactase is NOT vegan.
