cough suppressants/throat drops

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I'm just coming down with a cold. I googled Ricola, to see if their products are gluten-free. They say their products contain less than .01% gluten. One website says, "This is not acceptable for those on a gluten-free diet." Ricola itself says that it meets the standards of the Switzerland Celiac Association, and is considered safe for celiacs there. I'm wondering if others use Ricola lozenges and have had absolutely no reaction to them...

Also wondered if anyone takes Quantum Zinc-Echinacea cherry-mint lozenges... The only possibly bad ingredients are "maltodextrin" (which celiac.com suggests is almost always gluten-free) and "natural flavors."

Thanks for any help,

Sue
