Hi. 
 

I took medication 2 weeks ago containing corn and it caused a big delayed reaction in me. I seem to be as bad withh he corn as I am with gluten.  I am still having symptoms after 2 weeks. Does anyone else have this long a reaction to corn? 
Symptoms are gut related and also dizziness, fatigue, pins and needles all over, muscle weakness, brain fog and lots more. 
Many thanks.

Hi, Faye! 

What was the medication?  Some medications themselves can cause worsening GI symptoms.  

Some medications can precipitate vitamin deficiencies which can manifest as the symptoms you've described.

You can search prescriptions here for their ingredients, which may help you find out the culprit:

      Augmentin (amoxicillin) syrup

      By trents · Posted

      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."

      Augmentin (amoxicillin) syrup

      By Sergiu2020 · Posted

      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!

      Positive iGg antibodies but negative biopsy

      By hmkr · Posted

      I had high positive iGg antibodies in a full panel celiac test but a negative celiac biopsy. I was eating gluten for 2 months before the biopsy. Doctors are saying to trial a strict gluten free diet for 2-3 months and see if I feel better. I'm just confused about the antibodies. I mean my body is producing them for some reason?? I can't imagine I won't feel better with the diet. Would the diagnosis be non-celiac gluten sensitivity then? I thought you didn't have antibodies with that?  Confused. Thanks for your input!
