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.

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.

      @Manaan2, have you considered the possibility that she might be cross reacting to some food or foods that technically don't contain gluten but whose proteins closely resemble gluten. Chief candidates might be dairy (casein), oats (avenin), soy, corn and eggs. One small study showed that 50% of celiacs react to CMP (Cow's Milk Protein) like they do gluten.

      I realize I'm super late in the game regarding this topic but in case anyone is still reading/commenting on this one-does anyone who is especially sensitive have their personal observations to share regarding Primal Kitchen brand?  My daughter was diagnosed almost 2 years ago with celiac and within 6 months, her follow up labs were normal and a year later vitamin levels significantly improving, but we are still battling GI symptoms; particularly, constipation, so much that she has been on MiraLax every day since she was 3.  We've managed to get her down to a half cap every other day but without that, she continues to have issues (when she has a known, accidental ingestion unfortunately it takes a lot more MiraLax and additional laxatives to help her).  I was searching for something else and found this and am wondering if anyone has any specific comments regarding Primal Kitchen.  I feel like we are so incredibly careful with diet, logging diet and symptoms to look for patterns (we've had multiple dieticians help with this piece as well), not eating out, contacting companies and of course, there is always room for improvement but I'm running out of ideas regarding where her issues could be coming from.  Even if the Primal Kitchen is contributing, I'm sure it's not the only thing contributing but I can't help but think there must be handful of things that are working together and against her.  The ingredients list distilled white vinegar, but also white wine vinegar and balsamic, then "spices" which I'm always cautious about.  However, after contacting the company, I felt more comfortable allowing her to consume their products but over time I've realized that the front-line customer service support people don't always provide the most accurate of information.  Thanks for reading to anyone that does.
