Does anyone know if Equate brand Stool Softeners are gluten free? It is not marked on the bottle. They are a whole lot cheaper than Colace.

I know the question is old but for future Googlers: for 100mg 140 gel coated. Yes. Stated on inside label.

I know this question is very old, however I spoke with Equate and it is NOT gluten free.

So, does it actually contain gluten, or is it just "not gluten-free?' "Not gluten-free" is often a response dictated by corporate legal departments to avoid making a claim that they aren't prepared to stand behind.

Possibly just avoiding as you say. I just bought a brand that is so as not to take the chance. It would seem a yes or no answer to me. I am just recently diagnosed with celiac disease and am trying to learn as much as I can. Even the dietitian I was referred to knew very little.

I'm sorry, I'm new on here and recently diagnosed.  There is no writing on my Colace equate bottle from Walmart. The bottle doesn't state gluten-free.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.

      Had Quaker gluten-free oatmeal last night and my stomach is a mess today. NO flu but def stomach stuff. Anyone else?
    • Roses8721
      So you would be good with the diagnosis and not worry to check genetics etc etc? Appreciate your words!
