Is Pyridium gluten-free? (presc. Medication)

[debmidge]

I know a lot of people use lists and I have been leaning towards getting Clan Thompson; got myself in a pickle as I need to know if the Brand Name of Pyridium (Warner Chilcott) is gluten-free. You how it goes, you see Dr. in evening, drug companies are closed, pharmacy is no help and you don't know who to ask if the prescription you are about to buy is gluten-free.

If anyone has experience with Clan Thompson on prescriptions please advise me if it's inclusive enough for USA users.

If anyone has used brand name Pyridium and knows if it's gluten-free or not, please let me know....

One of the ingredients in Pyridium is "sodium starch glycolate" and I don't know if that's gluten-free (read it in PDR).

I will be calling Warner when they open up today.

I went to GFdrugs.com and it's not on their list, but I have often found that many gluten-free drugs are missing from their list.

I wish there was an easier way to get this information.

Thank you.

This site says it is gluten free (look at the VERY last line on the page).

And I looked at a bouple of other sites and most suggested potato starch was the starch normally used.

Tiffany, Thanks.. I called manufacturer Warner Chilcott and confirmed it's gluten-free & as a matter of fact the Cust Ser Rep I spoke with there believes her son may have celiac disease so we talked a little celiac disease symptom talk while I was on phone with her.

Also the Generic of this made by Amide is gluten-free as well.

Thanks again.
