Disclaimers

All information about raw materials and/or allergen information for Teva Canada’s products is obtained from our suppliers and/or third-party affiliates and is based on their records.

Please be advised that the Medical Information department is not always notified of change in third-party affiliates and/or change in suppliers of the active and inactive ingredients that may occur over time, and all information provided herein is based on our last records on file.

Our manufacturing sites are not certified gluten-free. Raw materials and finished products are not tested for the presence of gluten. Therefore, the presence of trace amounts of gluten in the raw materials and in the finished products cannot be excluded.

"Latex" refers to NATURAL RUBBER LATEX. We cannot guarantee that there is no latex in the outer packaging, or that the medication or packaging haven’t come into contact with latex at any point during the manufacturing process; however, this is very unlikely due to the strict GMP procedures that are in place in all of our manufacturing facilities. Employees in the manufacturing and/or packaging facilities may be wearing latex gloves.
