Are These Meds Gluten-free?

I've started having diarrhea and lightly colored, narrow stools. I've taken out soy, eggs, milk, and gluten, and these meds are the only thing I've added to my diet.

I know Ambien is gluten-free, but frequently side effects of medicines can be D.

Are you taking the generic for these brands or the actual brand itself? I know Ambien is gluten-free.

The Ambien is the name brand, tramidol is the generic for Ultram.

Tramadol is manufactured by several different companies, so you really have to verify with the company if it's gluten-free or not, get the pharmacist to help you with this. I take Tramadol mfd by Purepac, they don't add any gluten to their product but they won't guarantee it gluten-free, but I don't have any trouble with that company.

Ultram is on the glutenfree list.

Ultram is on the glutenfree list.

So next time I'll be sure to ask for the name brand.

Thanks, all!

Here is what I do when I need to find out what the non chemical ingredients are, I have the pharmacist open their books and search what all the ingredients medicinal and non medicinal are in the meds. They are so used to me that now they automatically check when they get a prescription.

I take tramadol to help with my muscle and bone pain when I sleep. And so far it hasn't given me any bad reactions to speak of.

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.

      Yes this is very frustrating for me ... not sure what to think.  Feels like I'm having reactions to a lot of things  Now applesauce?? I don't understand 😞 
    • Colleen H
      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you
