That is awesome! I loved Loestrin 24 and just stopped and switched over to Loestrin 1.5/30's generic brand Gildess once I was told that the Minastrin had gluten.
Can you verify which manufacturers you might have called? And is there a chance of cross-contamination for the active pills if the placebo is not gluten free?
After calling the manufacturers for Gildess 1.5/30, Qualitest Pharmaceuticals, the woman on the phone told me that there are "no gluten ingredients used in making this product, however, they cannot guarantee it would be suitable for celiacs as they do not test for gluten"
Should we be worried about gluten cross-contamination with BC pills in general?
