I get headaches a lot and just plain aspirin doesn't ever help so I take Excedrin Headache a lot. I haven't been able to find much info on this yet. Does anyone know anything about it?

Excedrin extra strength is on this list www.glutenfreedrugs.com

I have asked about Excedrin Migraine on here in the past and no one responded.

Sorry Abby! I would have responded if I'd known! :)

Please forgive.

Thanks! I looked on the list before I posted the question about it but I must have missed it. Good to know!

Anyone know about Excedrine Tension Headache?? I have e-mailed the company many times and NEVER get a response back. Maybe if I called I might have better luck. I just can't tell if I am getting a reaction to it or not. I usually do have some tummy discomfort, but it could have been something else I ate. Like yesterday I took some of the Excedrin Tension in the morning. Then I tried Mission corn tortillas (many people here recommend them), but since the tortillas have guar gum and I haven't been able to tolerate that in the past so I usually avoid it, I can't tell if the gas, pain and bloating I had all night was due to the tortillas or the pills... :(

So today I'm not taking any. But the temperature where I live has been over 100 degrees and is possibly going to hit 108 today! Anytime it goes over 100 and I have to go outside I risk getting a migraine. I can usually keep the migraine away by starting the day with some caffeine (and preferably acetominophen). I was told before that the Excedrine Migraine is gluten-free, but I don't take aspirin and find the Tension works just as well. It is the same as the migraine pills minus the aspirin. So if should be gluten-free, right? I just wish the company wouldn't blow me off. It makes me irritable. So does the heat! :rolleyes:

Sorry to ramble on. If anyone can help me, please do. I'm heading off to the community pool with later with 6 kids and 3 adults. Thank God for lifeguards. :D

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
