Which manufacturer, though? I took some from drug manufacturer CIPLA and I experienced a reaction from this similar to other gluten reactions I have had. One package insert available online lists “starch” as an inactive ingredient but another one (marked “2021 update” does not,

Meloxicam is actually a generic medication, the name brand for it would be Mobic and, since it is a generic, it is manufactured by several different companies. Thus, I can't tell you anything about the inactive ingredients without more information from you, such as the markings on the tablet, or the name of the manufacturer.

Can you please post back with this information?

Cathy did you find out more about taking Moxicam 15 and experiencing tummy pains and bloating? I'm a celiac sufferer too and my doc prescribed Moxicam 15 but it seemed to trigger my celiac symptoms. I've stopped taking them and have been suffering badly with my sore joints (fingers, wrists and ankles). Maybe a natural remedy for the joint pain?

You are describing the capsule and the tablet may have a different composition. I am having a bad reaction to the tablet as well. I would like to know if the tablet has gluten.

Hi! My name is Sharon and my knee gives out and my leg pulls up and I experience excruciating pain. My worse attack was about one hour after eating pizza. Looks like I am gluten sensitive! A friend of mine explained that your digestive system slows down when laying down. I was laying down when it happened and usually am when it happens. I can walk with Walker. I have arthritis and can't do other leg exercises because my knee will pull up and give out. Any suggestions? I am trying to stay away from gluten but I think it is even inside some of my generic meds which can't be checked out as far as I know.

Re: CRSB09 (# 17)

I have done research, but I can't seem to get an actual answer on what Unichem uses as their plant derived ingredients in MAGNESIUM STEARATE. Could this possibly be what's triggering my symptoms?
