Does anyone have gluten-sensitive enteropathy? I have just found out today that I have been poisoning my body with this generic drug for Singulair ever since I was diagnosed with celiac in Oct. (8 mos. ago). I trusted my pharmacist because I could not find anywhere on line that listed whether or not it was gluten free. : (

Singulair is listed as gluten free on www.glutenfreedrugs.com.  What is the name of your generic version?

 

If the generic version is not safe, inform your phamacist that you have intolerant issues to the generic. If the ingredients are not safe for you, he/she can contact your doctor and re- prescribe a version that will be safe.

 

My CVS phamacists are great to check on any meds I may take. They are on the phone often on my behalf, checking my prescriptions. Actually, they have flagged my account and when I pick up something they tell me that it is gluten free (although I already knew that).  And as always, I am beyond gratefull and appreciative.  As busy as they are, they are good!

 

Oh....any excuse my manners.  WELCOME!

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      Constantly! I don't want everything to cost as much as a KIND bar, as great as they are.  Happy most of the info is available to us to make smart decisions for our health, just need to do a little more research.

      Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can always to the gluten challenge later, after your pregnancy, should you need a formal diagnosis. I think it's best to play it safe in this case.

      Very true. I also suffered from candidiasis which had affected my intestines and toes. I think this might have triggered my gluten intolerance/celiac.

      Welcome to the forum community, @Jesmar! The HLA DQ2 and DQ8 genes were the original halotypes identified with the potential to develop celiac disease. Since then, other genes have been discovered that apparently afford a predisposition to celiac disease. As is always the case, these new discoveries are not yet common knowledge and not yet widely dispersed in the medical community. It is not genetically as black and white as we once thought.
