Help
According to the pharmacist NO they don't, but I'm having more and more pain everyday since I started taking them again. Does anyone know if they are suppose to be safe or not? Thanks so much to anyone who can help on this one!!

If they are causing you pain stop taking them. Then get the paper that comes with the script and call the company yourself to verify. If they are a generic or an OTC your risk of gluten is higher than if they are a name brand script. The drugs themselves may be gluten-free but the binders in them may not be. I recently threw away some allergy tabs from Eckerd Drugs because the labeling was ambiguous and there was not number or web site to call. Some druggists by the way are also clueless. I watched one at Eckerd throw a hissy fit and throw the paper that came with the drugs across the room because she was annoyed that I demanded that she check to be sure. She actually said, 'well I don't see the word gluten in there anywhere so they must be alright'. I get my scripts filled elsewhere now.
