my wife has a bad burn that started to smell. we have been soaking it in liquid colloidal silver. this is really helping. I also found a full bottle of eritronicina iqfamicina 500 mg. should she be taking this ## Hello, Eddie! How is your wife doing? It can be normal for a burn to have an odd odor, as some body cells are basically dying and decomposing. Did you she receive medical attention? This medication is an antibiotic, so it can treat or prevent an infection. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. However, only a doctor can saw whether or not she should take it.

Is Allopurinol mfg by qualitest gluten free? ## Hi edb, From what I could gather, Allopurinol from Qualitest contains the following inactive ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose and sodium starch glycolate. Unfortunately, "sodium starch glycolate" is heavily regarded as a questionable substance for those with a gluten intolerance; since it is derived from starch. So I personally wouldn't recommend taking it without your doctor's prior consensus. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Allopurinol Details I hope this helps! ## I got a new script of Allopurinol 300mg by Accord and need to know if it's gluten free?

I'm allergic to sulfa can I take chantix ## Hi tj, According to the FDA, Chantix reportedly contains the following list of inactive ingredients: microcrystalline cellulose, anhydrous + dibasic calcium phosphate + croscarmellose sodium + colloidal silicon dioxide + magnesium stearate + Opadry® White (for 0.5 mg) + Opadry® Blue (for 1 mg) + Opadry® Clear. To the best of my knowledge, none of these ingredients show any relation to sulfa. However, I still think it would be wise to double check with the doctor who's prescribing it just to be on the safe side. I hope this helps!
