When you pick up the prescription at the pharmacy, there are attached insert printouts on each RX bottle. Ask for one of those.

The list of inactive ingredients is on it. You can call your pharmacist and he/she can read it to you over the phone.

The FDA requires an insert be attached to each stock bottle distributed. For generic products, this is the fastest and perhaps only way to get that information.

For brand name products, www.rxlist.com has that information (which is just a copy of the insert) on it online.
