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.

      I've added NAC, N-Acetyl Cysteine; "crucial for replenishing glutathione—the body's master antioxidant." I used Clear Eyes 1% NAC lubricating eye drops for several years until the FDA forced them off the market.  In 2015 I had cataracts in bofh eyes.  In 2019 my left eye was clear, right eye was improved.  They are back now.  I discovered new companies with the drops at higher NAC but went with 500 mg NAC capsules.  Spread the cheer 🤓. My impression so far is the NAC is doing good.  Best with meal.

      When the pizza was dropped off she told me it had a Udi's certified gluten-free crust.  Even so, I am trying to play things as safe as possible for at least the next 6-months.  With that said, I returned the two slices to my neighbor and asked her to thank her mom for the pizza.  😊  I will likely bump into my neighbor's mom sometime next week.  She shuttles my neighbor's son, a freshman, to and from high school.  As mentioned, she is very kind so I am sure she will understand.  Heck, at least it went back to her family members and not in the trash.

      @Colleen H, How are you doing?  I hope you're improving. Yes, I react to gluten free products with corn in them.  Segments of the protein in corn are the same as protein segments in gluten.  So I react as though I've eaten gluten if I eat anything with corn.   I take a combination of Thiamine B1, Pyridoxine B6 and Cobalamine B12 together.  These act as a pain reliever as good as any over the counter pain reliever.  They won't hurt the stomach like aspirin or acetaminophen.   Thiamine will help nausea, anxiety, constipation, and headache.  Pyridoxine B6 and B12 will help with the pins and needles.  Magnesium helps work with thiamine to relieve symptoms. I also take a B Complex to boost absorption not absorbed from foods.  Niacin B3 helps with the anxiety, too.   Best wishes.

      I APPRECIATE you validating everything because this is a nightmare and the only reason why im fighting is because I don't want future generations to deal with this bs and medical should take responsibility for their lack of actions. Autoimmune disorder aka " food allergies " should be a mandated reportable disease for the safety of the patients.
