I am on Prevacid for stomach acid treatment and am trying to ween myself off. I was wondering if anyone knows if Zantac or Pepcid AC (or like product) is gluten-free & safe to take?

Any info/help is greatly appreciated.

This is this sites gluten-free list of medications. This might help you out. I saw some of the things you mentioned on here.

Hope this helps :D

celiac3270,

You mentioned you took Prilosec, was it the over-the-counter kind or the prescription kind for kids?

My son was just prescribed the "disolve in your mouth" tablet for kids (prescription only).

Haven't heard back from company or pharmacist yet.

Thanks!

Oops.... just reaized, he prescribed Pevicid NOT Prilosec (he rambled off a bunch of meds...)

Any info on Previcid children's prescription 30mg tablets that disolve in the mouth would be great.

I have been on 60mg a day for at least two years and was worried that when i was diagnosed i would not be able to take it, but my mom called the medicine company and the 30mg tablet is gluten-free. I did not ask about the 15mg pill, but I would assume that it would be the same thing. Good luck

I was taking Prilosec OTC (over the counter)...just a regular one--not the kids kind--and the doctor had me taking two a day, rather than the suggested one.

      Oral thrush question

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Has your doctor tested your vitamin D?  Urine Iodine deficiency? Vitamin B12 deficiency can be a contributing factor for oral thrush, especial if you are vegan. Celiac Disease causes  malabsorbtion leading to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Zinc supplementation reduces Candida infections  I know that zinc is an antiviral and have been using zinc glycomate (Cold Eeze lozanges) since 2004 and have not gotten cold or flu since.  The lozenge coats the mucous membrane with zinc, protecting the cell wall from the virus.  This research paper and some others indicate that zinc also acts as an antifungal.  Worth a try, Try to reduce how much food with high omega 6 that you eat to lower your omeaga 6 to 3 ratio.  It helps with inflammation.  Try eating foods with lots of benificial bacteria.  The goal is to repopulate your gut with good guys. Assuming you do not have dermatitis herpetiformis or another reason to limit iodine, Liquid Iodine to raise your iodine to the 600 mcg a day (middle of the RDA range (150-1000mcg)  to boost your immune system.  Iodine has anti-fungal properties that can help kill Candida species.  Your whole body will heal quicker when you have sufficient iodine and vitamin D.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      Oral thrush question

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @JulieRe! You would do well to get checked for a candida infection of the gut. Yeast thrives on carbs so you might also look into a low carb diet. These kinds of things seem to be more common in the celiac community than in the general population. There is a growing body of evidence that the development of celiac disease is rooted in unhealthy gut biome conditions. It's good that you are getting that red spot on your tongue checked out soon. It's likely related to the thrush but I would also not rule out a neoplasm which you would certainly want to catch early.

      Hi there! I have very similar dermatitis herpetiformis responses. The only thing that helps is dissolving a Benadryl pill and rubbing that on the painful itchy spots that arise on my knees, scalp, elbows. I have been working with a nutritionist who also has celiac we narrowed down to me only getting we certified gluten-free products - which I try the best I can. But then I have found products that use guar gum and other additive gums I have reactions as well. It was my plant based milk. I had to switch to Elmhurst it’s just nuts and milk- most of the time.   I hope that’s helpful! I’ll keep following:) we seem to have very similar reactions!
