I called about 3 different antibiotic oral suspensions today:

1)  I called Bristol Myers Squibb at 1-800-321-1335 (spoke to Ms.Patel)
and found out Cefzil is GF.

2)  I called Glaxo SmithKline at 215-751-4000 (spoke to Heather) and found
out
    a)  Amoxil is GF  (this is the brand, not generic)
    b)  Augmentin is GF  (this is the brand, not generic)

Bristol Myers Squibb said that their only gluten containing drug is
Pen-V-K.

I hope this helps someone.  I found Cefzil, Amoxil, and Augmentin on a GF
drug list... but it didn't specify oral suspension like some of the other
drugs, so I called to be sure!

Happy Holidays,
