Strides Pharma T3

I have just received my regular script of T3 and my pharmacist is aware of me being brand sensitive. I usually have Morningside but have been given Strides Pharma (a brand I haven't heard of). Can anyone tell me whether this brand contains Mannitol/Acacia as those ingredients made me very ill with other brands. I did download a copy of a document from this site that lists certain ingredients in certain brands but I can't find it

anyone else's experience on this brand please>
