Looking For A New Acid Relfux Med- Zantac 150?

HI all!

 

Does anyone take Zantac 150 (over the counter) without any problems? I just called the company and they told me they don't put gluten in the product, but can't guarantee cross contamination. And they don't test for gluten. :wacko: I hate when companies say that... ugh..

 

Or is anyone taking a different acid reflux medicine that they could recommend?

 

Thanks everyone!

I take Omeprezole (prilosec) and I get the generic and have no problems.  I've bought them from various stores Costco, Walmart, Target  etc... and never had a problem

I have taken the Kirkland (Costco) version of Zantac and have not been glutened. I think you are safe to take that version if there are no gluten ingredients listed on the label.

Thanks Ladies! I started the Zantac 150 today, so we'll see how I feel tomorrow. lol.. I'm pretty sensitive and especially now.. They said they didn't put gluten in it, but they don't test. i know this is the standard answer most of the time. It's just frustrating. <_< 

Judy, I did notice that Walmart Omeprezole says gluten free right on the box! :D I couldn't believe it! And when I called and asked about testing, they said they did test for gluten.. Holy Moly!!! I decided not to take it though just because the ppi's don't seem to help me anyway.. lol

Thanks cyclinglady! At least I know where to go if I have problems with the over the counter brand Zantac. :)

 

Thanks much!!

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
