Trouble With Aleve?

Does anyone here have trouble with Aleve?

I know that there are no gluten ingredients in the caplets but the company says that due to cross contamination their product might not be suitable for celiacs.

However all of the threads I've found on it are very old but have many Celiacs saying they've never had a problem with it. I am trying to identify what I got glutened with last week. I usually take the kirkland vrand aleve which are labelled gluten free and have never caused a problem but I was on a trip and took name brand aleve for 2 or 3 days in a row and symptoms popped up. It could have been something else though, I'm losing my mind trying to figure this out.

Never had a problem with name brand Aleve. If you were on a trip were you eating at restaurants or other folks houses? Could you have gotten glutened at someplace like that?

Oh god no I never eat out! Ever. I pack all my food ahead of time and take it all in an ice chest. My boyfriend stays entirely gluten free with me for the whole trip as well. I absolutely cannot figure out where it's come from.

I remember having an allergic reaction to Aleve back in 2003, I learned one of it's inactive ingredients and me was not a match. I know another acquaintance of mine who is not a celiac or gluten intolerant can not take it either, we both do share a cardinal commonality and that is allergies to kiwi.

It could be the water you were drinking on your trip.  Each municipality does different things to water and you can react to that.  Also, medications like that can be hard on your stomach and that could be what is causing your symptoms.  Do you take the Aleve with food?

      Products that help to break down potential accidental gluten exposure

      GliadinX is such a product and many/some report it really helps. In the interest of disclosure, the company that produces it is one of our sponsors.

      Products that help to break down potential accidental gluten exposure

      Occasionally eating out in restaurants means that there is potential cross contamination in spite of ordering a gluten free dish. What enzyme supplements can the forum recommend that would help with potential cross contamination? Something I could take before I start eating. I used to order Wheat Rescue from Microbiome lab, but it is not available anymore.

      Hi  - Anyone have any experience with these? I bought them at Costco thinking they must be gluten-free, but now I see Natural Flavors and Spice in the ingredients. There's no Gluten Free labeling. However the Costco site and two other sites say it's gluten free. Anyone know?

      Restaurants that offer gluten free no cross contamination

      Yes, I doubt you can find a perfectly safe restaurant--perhaps a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, but in general, very few of them exist, and they tend to be in larger cities. Super sensitive celiacs should probably just avoid eating out.
