Hi everyone,
Thanks to those who responded as to what can be substituted for Tums. Here
is the summary and the response I received to the e-mail I sent to the
manufacturer.
1 check my diet
1 Arm & Hammer (directions on the box)
1 Prevacid
3 Gaviscon
2 Rolaids
1 Liquid Pepto Bismal
We have received your e-mail on the Tums website with your question regarding
Tums and gluten.
While we do not use gluten as a filler in Tums, certain vendor-supplied
ingredients may contain trace amounts of gluten. Therefore, we cannot say
with 100% certainty that Tums is gluten free.
We appreciate your taking the time to contact us and hope that you found our
website to be helpful.
Sincerely,
Julie
Product Information Specialist
GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare

" So what do we do? Do we use Tums or don't we?" My problem is that I do
not get any of the symptoms after ingesting gluten so I would't know if it
was harmful to me.
