Does Paxlovid contain sodium?

Small unrelated rant here, but
I have a severe dairy allergy, to the point that even if it's less than 2%, I'll break out in horrible hives with terrible abdominal inflammation.
Most humans aren't able to digest milk properly, but Americans kinda brute forced their way into being able to digest it after babyhood.
if the tiniest amount effects me(like in this medicine), I can only imagine the small amounts of it in medicine, would cause side effects for those who don't realize how much lactose is in various medicine as well.
π That's some peculiar math. Exactly how did they stuff 176 mg of lactose into a 150 mg tablet?
150mg is just the amount of the active ingredient
Ahhh. So putting the pill on a precise scale will definitely be over 176 mg.
I figured it might be something like that. Thanks Fren.
