Celexa is on the gluten free drugs list: Open Original Shared Link, you need to check with your pharmacy. If you are being dispensed a generic version it may or may not contain gluten. Have your pharmacist mark your file to dispense only gluten free drugs and alert you if he cannot determine whether or not it is gluten free. :)

If it's generic, I ALWAYS call the manufacturer.

Hi,

I take the Celexa nongeneric 20 mg. in pill form and it is gluten-free, do not know about the other strenghts. I always call the mfg. companies even if the medicattion is listed on the gluten-free druglist and even though is not a generic, just to be safe, since I am highly sensitive.

Hope this help!

      Can anyone suggest a gluten-free heat protectant for hair. My granddaughter is13 and is beginning to use a curling iron. We are needing a heat protectant. She is very sensitive to gluten. She was diagnosed at 3. Diet and products are her life line.

      Hashimoto's is a type four hypersensitivity.   Read what this doctor did about hers... https://thyroidpharmacist.com/articles/food-sensitivities-and-hashimotos/ She adopted a Paleo diet. Once you get your inflammation down, and your nutrients up, your body's immune system can calm down and quit reacting to every little thing.

      Most doctors would dismiss the experiences I have described here, including my food diary, as somatic reactions, and begin to think of me as a hypochondriac--so I am very careful about what I share with doctors.  Most of the research done so far in the medical field has focused on Type I hypersensitivity: classic IgE-mediated allergic responses. I wasn't even aware of Type IV (or had forgotten about it) until knittykitty reminded me about it with her post. But even when talking about an allergist, does an allergist understand that Celiac is a Type IV hypersensitivity reaction? And if so, would an allergist believe or understand that other foods can cause a Type IV hypersensitivity reaction? And if so, are there objective tests that prove these non-gluten reactions, such as a hypothetical Type IV hypersensitivity reaction to apples, plums, sausage, cassava flour, etc? I do not believe these tests exist right now.  And lets say that these tests did exist, and I could take them, and obtain objective proof (besides my food diary) of my reactions to these foods. Now what? Is there a treatment besides avoiding those foods? I am not aware of it. I would simply be told: avoid all of those foods forever.  And that is not reasonable either. Avoid all of those foods forever? Really? There are times that I feel malnourished. I then will eat a food from the bad list, and suddenly feel much better nourished, but then I have a reaction that begins the next day or the day after that, and lasting many days afterwards. The reaction is always the same: brain fog, fatigue, dizziness, headache, significant enough to impair any productivity. I have been on this elimination diet for about 3 months now, but each time I attempt to re-introduce a food item that I initially reacted to, I have the same reaction. Therefore, I do not believe it will ever be safe in the future to re-introduce a food back into my diet safely. This is a big problem with no solution.
