Thank you to everyone who tried to help me find out about whether the
generic form of coreg, which is carvedilol, is gluten free. Fortunately, I was
able to find out the name of the manufacturer, which was Dr. Reddy's
Laboratories. I emailed them and received no response. However, the
pharmacist from our mail-order pharmacy called me back today to report that
it is gluten free.
Many people suggested going to www.glutenfreedrugs.com, but it appears
that this is a list for brand names only, and not generic.
Another site is rxlist.com, and someone suggested
http://homepage.mac.com/sholland/celiac/, but carvedilol wasn't listed.
A listmate from Canada suggested the US version of their PDR, which is
actually a great idea if you can get your hands on one. We have one in the
office I work in, but it is too old to have this info in it.
Several people suggested Google searches, which I had already done before I
posted the questions. I think we should always do as much as we can to
research these questions before posting a question to the list.
Thanks to everyone who offered a suggestion.
-Mary
