Does anyone know if Dramamine is gluten-free?

If you don't get an answer call Pfizer. I know some of their products are gluten-free and they list corn starch, not just starch, in the inactive ingredients.

Thanks Richard. I just got off the phone with Pfizer and they informed me that both the original and the chewable dramamine is gluten free.

I called and was told exactly the opposite. They stated that their products may NOT be gluten-free due the possibilty of cross-contamination and they could guarantee nothing. However, the company name on my bottle of Dramamine is "Pharmacia", and I don't recall if they are a subsidiary of Phizer or an entirely different company...but I doubt if there are 2 "Dramamines" out there, so I'm assuming they're the same place.

      A question - eggs & dairy

      By trents · Posted

      Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose. Lactase is produced in the small intestine. It is not produced in the pancreas. https://cymbiotika.com/blogs/health-hub/understanding-what-organ-produces-most-digestive-enzymes   "Lactase is found in the brush border of the small intestine of humans and other mammals." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactase Studies have shown through micro analysis that the small bowel lining from those with celiac disease may never completely heal, even after years of gluten free living. There is healing at the macro level but not all cellular functions may be restored.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Waterdance · Posted

      Thank you so much for this thorough and informative post. This information does help me to understand my body better. I will commit to a strict gluten free diet. I may not have a diagnosis but I know gluten is causing issues. The worst offender, white bread, causes a reaction within 20-30 minutes. Which I hate because I like sandwiches. Lol. Common sense dictates that it's time to stick to a strict gluten free diet. Thanks for the tips about alternatives. I do cook and bake so it's helpful to know what may work. I appreciate so much all the time and effort you all have put into helping me understand and being supportive. Thank you.

      I went back to consuming dairy after a year of healed villi.  What I didn't know is that along with developing celiac, my pancreas was no longer producing enough enzyme to consume lactose.  My GI said he often sees this with celiac patients.  Some people can go back to dairy with no problems at all and others will develop odd symptoms like ataxia--balance issues, etc.-- for no apparent reason.  It took me a year of suffering to get it all straightened out.  Hope this saves you some time!

      Blood results

      Do you know what the lab's standard range is for the IgA tTG2 result? The Endomysial IgA basically tests for the same antibodies as IgA tTG2 but it uses an older, less sensitive method and the result is positive/negative rather than quantitative. Hence, it is possible to show raised IgA tTG2 antibodies without getting a positive test for Endomysial IgA antibodies.

      She’s eating mostly gluten as far as I know. Think her GP is trying to get her seen fairly quickly
