Hi all.

After having spent the past 5 and 1/2 hours contacting pharmacies and  
manufacturer's, trying to identify a safe antibiotic for my daughter,  
I am ready to pull my hair out.

The doctor prescribed amoxil for my celiac daughter...no one carries  
it or can even order it.  It seems only generic formulations are  
available and I am yet to find one that is gluten free.  So I called  
the doctor back and he switched the script to CEFDINIR by Teva.  But  
the pharmacist is unwilling/unable to help me determine if it is  
gluten free and the company is closed for the day.  Meanwhile, my  
daughter just sits patiently waiting for what should be an easy  
remedy...it is maddening.  I'm sure I am not the first, or sadly, the  
last to experience this.  Though it is a first for us.  I have checked  
clan thompson smart list, gluten free med website, teva website, etc.

If anyone has had any experience with this medication, Cefdinir, or  
knows of a website that might offer some info regarding it's safety  
for a celiac child, I would be SO very grateful!

Thanks so much!
