Children's Benadryl Dye-Free gluten free?


PilarSánchez

Recommended Posts

My daughter and I are both Celiacs, she has trouble swallowing the dye free pill and I was wondering if anyone knows if the dye free children liquid was gluten free? I can't seem to get a proper answer so far, and I don't want to give her anything containing gluten. (This is for food allergies lately she's been having flare up to food she's been able to previously eat, she breaks out and get hives, itchy mouth and throat etc.)  She's taken the dye free Benadryl gels a few times and they seemed to help her, but she always chews them up and complains about the taste and her mouth going numb. I'm worried about the side effects of her chewing it up instead of swallowing it. 

 

If the liquid isn't gluten free, does anyone know similar medication that comes in gluten free liquid form?

Crush the die free pills into a powder and put them in some liquid you know she will drink. like OJ or chocolate milk. Add a little sweetener if necessary.

They sometimes list all of the active and inactive ingredients on the box. If they did this it would be listed in the inactive ingredients.

      I was undiagnosed for quite a few years. I now have neuropathy in my hands and feet. Be watchful of something like this and definitely see a neurologist if having symptoms like numbness in your extremities.

      Hello, @jadeceoliacuk, Has your son been tested for nutritional deficiencies?  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of essential nutrients which can result in nutritional deficiencies.  Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.   I would find a nutritionist more knowledgeable about Celiac and ASD, before taking herbal supplements that don't contain essential vitamins. Interesting Reading: Relationship between Vitamin Deficiencies and Co-Occurring Symptoms in Autism Spectrum Disorder https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7279218/   Autistic Spectrum Disorder, Mitochondria, and Nutrient Deficiencies https://hormonesmatter.com/autistic-spectrum-disorder-asd-mitochondria-nutrients/   Relationship between Vitamin Deficiencies and Co-Occurring Symptoms in Autism Spectrum Disorder https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7279218/ Keep us posted on your progress!
