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.

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      Living with celiac disease can be especially hard when you’re in a smaller town and don’t have many people around who truly understand it, so you’re definitely not alone in feeling this way. Ongoing fatigue, joint pain, and headaches are unfortunately common in people with celiac disease, even years after diagnosis, and they aren’t always caused by gluten exposure alone. Many people find that issues like low iron, low vitamin D, thyroid problems, other autoimmune conditions, or lingering inflammation can contribute to that deep exhaustion, so it’s reasonable to push your doctor for more thorough blood work beyond just vitamin B. As for eggs, it’s also not unusual for people with celiac disease to develop additional food intolerances over time; tolerating eggs as an ingredient but not on their own can point to sensitivity to the proteins when they’re concentrated. Some people do better avoiding eggs for a while, then carefully testing them again later. Most importantly, trust your body—if something consistently makes you feel awful, it’s okay to avoid it even if it’s technically “allowed.” Many of us have had to advocate hard for ourselves medically, and connecting with other people with celiac disease, even online, can make a huge difference in feeling supported and less isolated.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Cecile! It is common for those with celiac disease to develop sensitivity/intolerance to non-gluten containing foods. There is a high incidence of this with particularly with regard to dairy products and oats but soy, eggs and corn are also fairy common offenders. Like you eggs give me problems depending on how they are cooked. I don't do well with them when fried or scrambled but they don't give me an issue when included in baked and cooked food dishes or when poached. I have done some research on this strange phenomenon and it seems that when eggs are cooked with water, there is a hydrolysis process that occurs which alters the egg protein such that it does not trigger the sensitivity/intolerance reaction. Same thing happens when eggs are included in baked goods or other cooked dishes since those recipes provide moisture.  So, let me encourage you to try poaching your eggs when you have them for breakfast. You can buy inexpensive egg poacher devices that make this easy in the microwave. For instance:  https://www.amazon.com/Poacher-Microwave-Nonstick-Specialty-Cookware/dp/B0D72VLFJR/ Crack the eggs into the cups of the poacher and then "spritz" some water on top of them after getting your fingers wet under the faucet. About 1/4 teaspoon on each side seems to work. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on top and then snap the poacher shut. I find that with a 1000 watt microwave, cooking for about 2 minutes or slightly more is about right. I give them about 130 seconds. Fatigue and joint pain are well-established health problems related to celiac disease.  Are you diligent to eat gluten-free? Have you been checked recently for vitamin and mineral deficiencies? Especially iron stores, B12 and D3. Have you had your thyroid enzyme levels checked? Are you taking any vitamin and mineral supplements? If not, you probably should be. Celiac disease is also a nutrient deficiency disease because it reduces the efficiency of nutrient absorption by the small bowel. We routinely recommend celiacs to supplement with a high potency B-complex vitamin, D3, Magnesium glycinate (the "glycinate" is important) and Zinc. Make sure all supplements are gluten-free. Finally, don't rule out other medical problems that may or may be associated with your celiac disease. We celiacs often focus on our celaic disease and assume it is the reason for all other ailments and it may not be. What about chronic fatigue syndrome for instance?

      I work as a renal RD and have a Celiac pt which has been rare for me (I might have had 3-4 Celiac pts in 15 years). I wondered if anyone can confirm that these medications are gluten free and safe for Celiac.  Ferric citrate (Auryxia)  Sucroferric oxyhydroxide (Velphoro)  lanthanum carbonate (Fosrenol) sevelamer carbonate (Renvela)   Thank you!
