Does anyone know if Equate brand Stool Softeners are gluten free? It is not marked on the bottle. They are a whole lot cheaper than Colace.

I know the question is old but for future Googlers: for 100mg 140 gel coated. Yes. Stated on inside label.

I know this question is very old, however I spoke with Equate and it is NOT gluten free.

So, does it actually contain gluten, or is it just "not gluten-free?' "Not gluten-free" is often a response dictated by corporate legal departments to avoid making a claim that they aren't prepared to stand behind.

Possibly just avoiding as you say. I just bought a brand that is so as not to take the chance. It would seem a yes or no answer to me. I am just recently diagnosed with celiac disease and am trying to learn as much as I can. Even the dietitian I was referred to knew very little.

I'm sorry, I'm new on here and recently diagnosed.  There is no writing on my Colace equate bottle from Walmart. The bottle doesn't state gluten-free.

      Why Celiac Diagnosis Still Takes Years—and How to Change That

      Withholding the treatment (strict gluten-free diet) until the very end to me is the biggest obstacle to getting more people "identified" with gluten intolerance/Celiac. The strict gluten-free diet in my opinion is both the effective treatment and also a valuable diagnostic tool. My personal advice would be to go on a properly administered gluten-free diet...

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      I don't recall seeing "many people here recommending RO water," but reverse osmosis (RO) water is water that has been purified by forcing it through a very fine membrane that removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS, and many other contaminants. It is one of the most thorough household filtration methods available and can be especially...

      What would you do - neighbor brought gluten-free pizza from Papa Murphy's

      With the wide availability of frozen prepared gluten-free pizzas, for example DiGiorno's, it's probably best to avoid the risk of eating pizza in restaurants that also make regular pizza.

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I don't recall seeing "many people here recommending RO water," but reverse osmosis (RO) water is water that has been purified by forcing it through a very fine membrane that removes dissolved salts, heavy metals, fluoride, nitrates, PFAS, and many other contaminants. It is one of the most thorough household filtration methods available and can be especially beneficial in areas with well water or known contamination concerns. While RO systems also remove beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium and may produce slightly “flat”-tasting water, most dietary minerals come from food rather than drinking water, so this is not usually a health concern for most people. Overall, RO water is very clean and safe to drink, and it can be a smart option where water quality is questionable, though it may not be necessary in areas with well-tested municipal water.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will only add that one should never do 50k IU daily of vitamin D without being advised to do so by your doctor, and only if they are closely monitoring your vitamin D levels over the time you are doing this.
