I need to find out if my methotrexate, naproxyn, or prednisone have any gluten, also a host of vitamins and some other meds. Is there an online site for this? I have to wait forever to get information from my pharmacist and then I"m not quite sure I trust it.

Thanks

Ann

Ann,

You can go to clanthompson.com

If you click on Download site and then click on Demo Download Page You will get a free drug list. You can also have access to a gluten free food list from this site.

Good luck.

p.s.: Your dad's smile was a true ray of sunshine. I can see how he helped to keep you strong. Besides, seeing the picture, I thought "That can't be a picture of Ann"'. :D

Thank you Cindy! I will definitely check out the site. I am trying to make sure all my ra meds are not getting me glutened when I'm trying so hard to clean out! It would be nice to print off a gluten-free food list to carry with me too.

Thank you for you comments on my Dad. He was a good man by all accounts. That would be a funny looking 'Ann' ;)

The fastest and most up-to-date is to call the manufacturers yourself. If they tell you they don't add gluten but they can't guarantee ingredient suppliers, it's gluten-free.

I don't bother to ask the pharmacist. They don't know and often don't have time to find out.

I like this website:

Click on the letter that your medication starts with under "Complete Pharmaceutical Monographs". When looking at medication, you should find the ingredients in the "Availability And Storage" section.

Thanks Carrie -

I looked up one of my medicines. You really have a lot to look through. When I got down to the ingredients it specifically said "Gluten Free". :) .

      Abnormal Labs, Should I Be Concerned?

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      I also had high eosinophils which I’ve never had before either - could that be due to gluten consumption?

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...

      Thanks for your response and thoughts. Total IgA is normal. HLA DQ2/DQ8 came as heterozygous and the interpretation of the lab that the risk of coeliac disease is mild to moderate. Thyroid function test is normal. I agree that the best way is to repeat tTG antibodies in 6 months time as the result was not massively high.

      Welcome to the forum, @Wamedh Taj-Aldeen, How is the patient's thyroid?   You could check for thiamine deficiency which can cause the thyroid to either become hyper or hypo.  TTg IgA can be high in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.  tTg IgA can also be high if patient is taking medications to stimulate the thyroid as in hypothyroidism.   Thanks for visiting!  Keep us posted!
