When I take generic Cymbalta, generic Vicodin and generic Trazadone, I wheeze. Where can I find out what the fillers are?  I am guessing there is gluten in these? please advise.

Contact your pharmaceutical provider and ask them to research it. I have done this on several occasions with meds I take. Typically, they can tell you what goes into the pill but they can't guarantee no cross contamination with other ingredients during manufacture.

This site might help, and it does have some of the drugs you mentioned:

Daily Med is a website where you can look up any drug and find the inactive ingredients listed. But if they say any form of "starch" and don't specify the source, it could be wheat (not safe!) or corn/potato (fine). The only way to find that one out is to call the manufacturer and hope they can give you a straight answer : (

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.
