Is it that nasty orange soda drink? It tastes terrible!! But, unfortunatley for us, it is gluten-free. ;) But, you can still call the nurse and get the phone number for the company if you want.

I thought the orange drink was yummy! It's not bad at all. A little boring so bring something to read.

The drink was Very sweet and a little nasty, but not too bad. I had no trouble drinking it. However, less than 20 minutes after I took the first dose of it, I fell asleep. I did a six hour GTT and slept all six hours! :rolleyes: Oh well, at least it didn't seem that long since I was snoozing and not watching the clock! ;) Good luck! (hope the test answers questions for you). -Julie

      Gluten free thyroid medications

      By maryannlove · Posted

      Thought was finished with this but a friend just sent email saying she takes Tirosin liquid levothyroxine which has no fillers (mentioned by Pgetha above).  Friend's doc sends script to one of Tirosin's direct-mail pharmacies.  Looking that up, government insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) doesn't cover (as Pgetha wrote above).  But if use one of their direct-mail places three month supply is $57/month.  Researching that, happened to learn Yaral also makes a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      By dmallbee · Posted

      As a life.long celiac, I understand this.  I simply ask that the medical profession stop disregarding the fact that it should remain a concern for some. It cost me a lot of medical discomforts.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.
