      I don't know the regulations regarding maltodextrin in my country but i'll  do a research. Anyway i didnt see on any products which contains Maltodextrin to have Gluten or Wheat mention added.  Thanks a lot for your reply. It helped a lot! 👍

      Excerpted from the above article: "While USA regulations permit maltodextrin to be made with wheat, it is very rare. Also, maltodextrin made with wheat will be labeled as "wheat maltodextrin" or "maltodextrin (wheat)." Any product that contains wheat should also have 'wheat' listed on the allergen disclosure." If you are not in the USA, the regulations and protocols surrounding maltodextrin mentioned in this article may not apply. You would need to familiarize yourself with your government's food and drug administration regulations that control disclosures relative to allergen's in general and maltodextrin in particular.

      https://i.postimg.cc/wjGp0qYy/20250129-194549.jpg My 4-year-old daughter started having pain in her right ear yesterday. We went to the ENT doctor today, and he prescribed an antibiotic and ear drops. The prescribed antibiotic is Augmentin syrup (amoxicillin) with a berry flavor (since my daughter has a very hard time taking oral medication, the doctor chose a flavored version). The package insert does not specify whether it contains gluten or not. However, it does mention that it contains maltodextrin. I read somewhere that maltodextrin generally does not contain gluten, but there is a (much lower) risk that it might. The doctor told us it is gluten-free. The pharmacist said the same but didn’t seem very confident. Given that my daughter has celiac disease and that the last time she accidentally consumed gluten, we ended up in the hospital with severe stomach pain, IV fluids, etc., we are afraid to give her the antibiotic, but she needs it.   Does anyone know if Augmentin contains gluten or not? Thank you in advance!

      Welcome to the forum, @Sandi20! By "specifically designed for celiac" do you mean gluten free or something more?
