What Do You Take For Asthma Inhalors?

I have asthma and have been taking singulair and pulmicort for several years. But lately, I've getting my tell tale signs of gluten ingestion. So I think I narrowed it down to these two meds.

So I contacted both companies and singulair said they were gluten-free, but pulmicort gave me that same old see ya statement. "We don't add any glutens, but we use other companies that might". I really hate that!

So, I'm wondering if there are other inhalors out there that are gluten-free???

Thank you!

Can't help with gluten-free inhalors, just wanted to say that Pulmicort made me sick too. Nothing serious, just persistent neuro issues - cramps in my forearms and similar stuff. I don't use anything now and I'm fine.

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
