  Yesterday I talked to Larry Hough, the Medical Information Specialist for
Upjohn Canada  and he confirmed that Depo-provera, manufactured by Upjohn, is
gluten-free as are all their products.

Have not heard back yet from Ortho Pharmaceutical but from information Ortho has
submitted to the CPS (Compendium of Pharmaceutical Specialties), their products
