Hi I was just wondering if anyone knew if the Exact anti - nauseant tablets are gluten-free. I feel super sick ,I was like this since last night and this is all I could find in the house. The thing is I cant find a website for it to find out if its gluten-free . I felt sick ever since I ate the peanut butter cookies I made and I used was skippy pb. Does anyone use this brand? thanks

I have not heard of this brand, but I use Requa charcoal tabs whenever I make a goof. They work awesome! I know there are some other makers of these too...check with your pharmacist.

Some things to help nausea are peppermints.. like hard strong peppermint candy. Also my grandma always gave us a bi carb.. baking soda in water.. tastes bad but works well and I think baking soda is gluten free. Just hold your nose and drink it fast.

Another thing is ginger tea. When I was pregnant with my second child, OOFFDA... I did not want to hurt her so I took no meds.. Go to a good store with a large produce section and either buy ginger in the root form or diced and in a jar already, its near the garlic cloves (both kinds) in my store.. Dont get the powdered spice, whole other beast that is.

Put 8 oz of water in a saucepan and either a small whole peice of ginger (dont have to peel or chop) about 1/2 tsp worth.. or the cut up stuff, half a tsp. Gently simmer for at least 2 mins, the longer you simmer, the stronger it gets. Remove the hunk or strain out the diced peices, add sugar or honey or milk, however you like tea and drink. You can also buy peppermint tea and add your own ginger, very effective at reducing nausea. They may have ginger tea already in a bag too, to tell you the truth, I dont like tea much so...

Some people swear by plain ol hot water.. drinking a cup of it...

Of course the very best effective anti nausea drug is injectable Vit B but since no one wants to inject themselves and the only type available is for live stock, thats not an option. You could try oral, vit b complex....

I use Skippy pb with no problem. I have called the manufacturer and it is gluten-free. Must have been something else!

If you're not a tea drinker like myself, you can always chew or suck on crystalized ginger. Works wonders for me!

:) My doctor prescribed Tigan for me when I get nauseated. That really works great for me. I do also suck on Peppermint candies, take Peppermint capsules and drink the Peppermint tea. I know it sounds like overkill, but I can't stand to feel this way.

Good Luck!!

I drink gluten-free peppermint tea or Pepto Bismol.

Also I have an Rx for NuLev if the pain/spasms get bad.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
