I just called to check on Pepsid Complete and was told that are "testing" to see if it is gluten-free. They did not have a date as to when they would know. I thought I read on this forum that it was gluten-free. Should I take it?

I wrote to them last week. I'm taking Pepcid AC for heartburn/ulcers. Here's their response...Go Figure.

Thank you for visiting our website.

We hope you became more familiar with our PEPCID AC and MYLANTA ® products during your visit to the site. In reference to your inquiry concerning the gluten content in our products, I have listed below the products which have been tested and do not contain detectable levels of gluten.

Children's TYLENOL ® Plus Cold and Cough Chewable Tablets

Children's TYLENOL ® Suspension Grape Flavored Liquid Extra Strength

TYLENOL ® Caplets Extra Strength

TYLENOL ® PM Gelcaps Maximum Strength

TYLENOL ® Allergy Sinus Caplets

TYLENOL ® Arthritis Pain Extended Release Caplets

Infants' TYLENOL ® Cherry Concentrated Drops

Imodium ® AD Caplets

Children's Motrin ® Cold Non-Staining Dye Free Oral Suspension

Children's Motrin ® Non-Staining Dye Free Oral Suspension

Infants' Motrin ® Non-staining Dye Free Concentrated Drops

For the remainder of McNeil's products: Glutens are naturally-occurring proteins found in grains such as wheat, rye, barley and oats, but are not found in corn. The source of starch in this formulation is corn. Other inactive ingredients may be derived from a source other than corn. We are not aware of published reports associating the use of our products according to package label directions with a worsening of symptoms in patients with celiac disease. We hope this information is helpful.

The list doesn't contain Pepcid and the representative on the phone told you they were testing it. I'd avoid.

      The Happy Tart review

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling...

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The...

      Nausea

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?

      The Happy Tart review

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my...

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

It was very disappointing, esp to my wife, to realize we can't patronize the place anymore.
