Anyone know? It's not on glutenfreedrugs.com. Imitrex is similar and is gluten-free. I took Relpax about an hour ago and have not had any reaction, but I know there is a more comprehensive link someone here had...care to help or post it again? I printed it all out but can't find it!

Well it's not on the Delphi list either :( so I would call before taking it again.

jknnej Collaborator

I will call tomorrow morning. It's hard to tell if I'm reacting b/c I'm already sick with this migraine.

Let us know. I was given some of that as a sample from my doc - haven't used it yet...

Migraine sufferers: there is hope!

I called Pfizer today: Relpax IS gluten free. And, I personally have used it twice and NO reaction. So, go for it!

Thank God!!!!

PS How do we get it added to glutenfreedrugs.com and the Delphi list? By the way, what is the website for the Delphi list?

celiac3270 posted about the Delphi list in the Product section and was sending it out to anyone who wants a copy of it.

celiac3270 also posted where you can get it if you want to get it yourself:

1) Go to the website, Open Original Shared Link

2) Click on "messages" or "start reading"

3) Select the folder "gluten-free Product List"

4) Click on the topic called "Downloadable files word"

5) Of the four options, choose the one in the upper right.

It's free, it's 79 pages

Great! Can you imagine is our migraine med had gluten in it? Like I need more migraines. What a vicious cycle.

Thanks for finding out!

Wow, another forum like ours. Kati, are you a member of that one, too? Are a lot of our members also on Delphi? I subscribed just now.

KaitiUSA Enthusiast

I personally like this forum better but yes they have alot of members(not sure how many from here)...and yes I am a member on that one too...I just don't post there much...this is my home for posting :D

jknnej Collaborator

Yes, this is my home for posting, too. The other one looks pretty cool when you need to study up on something specific, but I like this one best. Will be a member for life!

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
