Just wondering if anyone knows if Mircette (a brand of the pill) is gf
**AND** casein free.

I went to my GYN today and she prescribed it, but said she has nothing that
tells her which brands are gf and which aren't, much less casein free.

I called my regular pharmacy and they looked up specific ingredients, found
it has Vitamin E and Lactose (does Lactose mean there is def. a Casein
problem??  I have been avoiding Lactose to be safe while I figure out how to
research that.)

I have tried calling the company but had to leave a message -- so I figured
I'd turn to the list.

The Archives say it was considered gluten free in 2001.  But there is
nothing posted more recently -- and there is no mention of Casein.

THANKS!
