Green List (high evidence)

From Babyscreen+:
Well established gene-disease association.

Typically presents in infancy.

Treatment: Galactose-free diet

Commonly included in traditional NBS

From OMIM:
Galactosemia I (GALAC1), or classic galactosemia, is an autosomal recessive disorder of galactose metabolism. Most patients present in the neonatal period, after ingestion of galactose, with jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly, hepatocellular insufficiency, food intolerance, hypoglycemia, renal tubular dysfunction, muscle hypotonia, sepsis, and cataract. Long-term complications include mental retardation, verbal dyspraxia, motor abnormalities, and hypergonadotropic hypogonadism
