yes! you can use Tom's of Maine cough & cold rub. If you do an oline search for this company, you can go to their website and use the store locator link to find a store near you that carries it...hope that helps!

My local drugstore carries it. I am sure it can be found just about anywhere like CVS, Walgreens, Kroger, Safeway, etc.

hope that helps!

Here is a list of the ones that I found that are Gluten Free. I am not sure if they are are all Casein Free, but I do know that the Robitussin DM is safe for people on the GFCF diet. Also remember if your child is on other medications or suppliments to ask a Pharmacist about any possible drug interactions.

Robitussin is GFCF, but it does have corn syrup in it as an inert ingredient.
