Hi -

I've got either a bad cold or allergies coming on, and my head gets so stuffed up....does anyone know if Sudafed and/or Claritin is okay?

We called the Sudafed company and they said that while sudafed itself doesn't contain gluten, it may be manufactored in a place that does manufacture gluten containing products. I do know that the two days last week I took Sudafed, I got glutened....but it might have been from a couple of different things.

I've tried steaming, hot showers, etc.....any ideas??

Thanks!

Emily

My spring allergies are killing me this year! Claritan is gluten-free. I've been using it for years--and am currently using it. My allergist gave me Zyrtek, but honestly, for me, the Claritan works and causes me no side effects so I prefer it. B)

I have been taking Claritin also and it has been a life saver this season!

Sudafed's response is pure CYA. I'd take it.

      Thanks a lot! I will search that too. I also talked to another doctor and she assured me there is no gluten in this type of antibiotics. Anyway i started the administration of Augmentin on my girl this evening. I hope there will be no problems.

      Brasswell marmalade and jellies are gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Good afternoon, I don’t know if anyone here has ever tried Braswell’s products like their marmalades or jellies? Are they gluten-free? On the ingredients says “cane sugar, cherries (cherries, cane sugar), strawberries, corn syrup, pectin and citric acid. That ingredient list is from their berry preserve bottle. Most of them say the same for ingredients, but I’m not sure if it is okay to consume.

      I have seen this problem many times. I always get in touch with the company. Most times they tell me if I'm just gluten free it is ok, but do not eat it if you are celiac. Calling the company is the best way when you are not sure. Yesterday I had a different example of products being marked gluten-free.  I love chocolate and have a piece each day. The chocolate bar I like is Chocolove. When I bought one this week it was not marked gluten-free. I called the company to find out why and if it was still gluten-free.  Turns out the manufacturer decided there was too much on the wrapper and took off the gluten-free label. It is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility.
