Anyone know for sure if Wellbutrin is definitely gluten-free? Took half a pill today and am crawling out of my skin - have taken it before with great results, though.....

Thanks!

I have no info on gluten-free status, but be careful as it's very, very constipating. I had to stop taking it due to this.

I know in Canada it is, because I take it!

Debmidge, "constipating" I wish it was for me!!! LOL! :P I would be doing the happy dance!

When I first started on the meds, I felt like I was jumping out of my skin too. And while this one may have worked well for you before, it will take some re-adjusting to it (or you may have to switch). Remember too that if your GI tract is healing, it's absorbing things differently then before so you may have a different reaction.

Hope today's better!

It is listed on the gluten-free drug list at www.glutenfreedrugs.com.

i had that same reaction to MANY antidepressants. it helped me if i took a xanax with the antidepressant for about the first week until my body adjusted----then i didn't have that crawly sensation any more.

I also take Wellbutrin SR with no problems. I did notice, however, that you said you took 1/2 a pill. I know at least with the SR versions that you are not suppose to split the pill. I am not sure what it will do differently, but each time I get the RX, it says to swallow the pill whole - do not split, crush or chew.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
