Help
I can't believe I don't know this. I can't find any info on it.
Can someone tell me if it's gluten-free?

I found this info for you- however after looking closer I realized it is likely from New Zealand. There should be either a phone number or the name of the maker in the drugs info sheet. You can get that sheet from your pharmacist, who should be checking for you anyway.
