<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> hello, sorry to bother you all out there but i am totally at a loss right now and this is my last stop for some help. i am inbetween prescription drugs right now and well to make a long story short, i was told to be on benadryl for 24 hours, to rest my body then to take yet another drug to see if it helps.. i still have no idea about the other drug as far as what it is etc. that i start tommorrow. i am on the last rope before being in the hospital, so i am just doing what i got to do.. i have some really major kidney, not uti infection and they found something on my last scan.. so i am just freaking out now! my problem is that benadryl makes me so anxious and sick i can not take it. it also has gluten in it. this is based on the antigliadin tests and it came out positive. i found that info online somewhere in my desperate attempt to find another benadryl type med. i could find this source if someone needs to see it. i just do not have the link to it right now. i believe i did a search on gluten free medication. but no wonder anytime they give me a benadryl shot in the hospital i have problems! geesh! since i am needing my immune system to be in the best shape possible.. what else can i take? i still have a sunburn feel all over my body due to the last med i had been taking. it happened on day 5, but i had the worst side effects for days before the skin burn happened. it has been 20 hours since i have not been on it and i still burn and feel fried! i am due to start the new med tommorrow and i have no clue what it is yet or if it is gf. i sure hope it is! help! i did order that gf meds book btw, but i need help now! thanks for anyones response.. this really stinks and i know my pharmacist is not much help when it comes to gluten issues. anyone ever taken anything more hardcore than cipro 500 mg for a kidney problem out there? can i get a name of something.. i am about ready to take anything as long as it works. thanks for any help. i would be happy to summarize as far as letting anyone know what is safe to take like benadryl. michele in colorado
