Thanks,

But can I just tell you how hard it is to find caplets these days....I have gone to 4 -5 different places. CVS actually told me they dont carry them anymore because the geltabs sell much better. Even their vendor discontinued them....ANyone else have a problem getting caplets, the sinus and cold ones!

Who here thinks these are the Meltaways or not? Those are the only children's chewables Tylenol currently has on the market, only last month they said they still haven't tested them for gluten! What is taking them so long, they haven't had any other children's chewables available for at least a year or two.

I might have to call that number again and check to see if the Meltaways are the Soft chews they are talking about on the list. Tylenol/generic tylenol is the only pain reliever my middle boy can use! <_<

Are the Extra Strength Rapid Release Gels the same as the Extra Strength Gel Caps? I bought some and was trying to verify before my husband has to use them and I noticed that it actually says Rapid Release Gels and I've never noticed that before (I guess I picked up the wrong package) so I'm not sure if these are safe and if they have gluten then the headache he has will be the least of his worries if he takes them. If anyone knows I'd appreciate the help. Thanks.

Your question was well anwsered by the pros here, but just wanted to let you know that Tylenol is pretty rough on the liver. I use Aleve. :)

I just called Tylenol yesterday asking about the Meltaways. She said that the Meltaways are still out being tested and the results aren't back yet. She said they should have the results in about two weeks. In the meantime, the children's suspension (bubble gum, strawberry, cherry and I think there's one more flavor) are gluten free so I just bought some of that instead.

The Extra Strength Rapid Release Gels are NOT gluten-free. I verified that by phone. They are not the same as the Extra Strength Gelcaps. I use the ES Gelcaps.

Jenn2005 Contributor

Thanks Patti. I was a little confused with the rapid release being on the bottle I picked up. I'm glad I waited could have been an ugly few weeks.

Jennifer--Glad you asked! I actually bought it a while back--not thinking. Anyway, I did call before I took it, and was so glad I did :D

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
