SALICYLATE FREE PRODUCTS FOR THE GUAIFENESIN PROTOCOL

THIS PRODUCT LIST WAS SAL FREE AS OF DEC 4, 2024

Please don't skip reading this intro on sal free products:


I created this sal free product list to show that the number of sal free products on the market are endless, making it easy to follow the guaifenesin protocol. 


With over 300 sal free products listed, this is just a sampling of sal free products readily available. 


Even though I've provided an extensive list to help get you started, you must check each product for sals using the Expanded Sal Checklist (see downloads) before buying and before using as manufacturers frequently change ingredients. 


For the most up-to-date list of ingredients, refer to the product packaging.


If you aren't yet comfortable checking for sal free products, there are 2 salicylate free companies that do not require you to check ingredients and are comparable in cost to local stores:


cleure.com

andrearose.com


fibropharmacy.com has a sal free starter kit available (shown to the left). They also come with the correct dose of guaifenesin for starting the guaifenesin protocol. 


REMEMBER: Always check each product online for sals before buying and check the product packaging before using.
