What to do next

2. Ask your pharmacist about the source of any flagged excipients (e.g., stearate, gelatin, glycerin).
3. Ask whether a different manufacturer or formulation has a clearer ingredient profile.
4. If fiqh nuance applies (e.g., ethanol or animal-derived), consult a qualified scholar.
5. Save to My Meds to track and re-check later.
