I don't take thyroid meds or have a good answer to your question, however, you can search all prescription medications for their ingredients here, but you do need to know the manufacturer:

With the caveat that I haven't checked with the manufacturer lately, I take Levothyroxine (generic synthroid) made by Mylan. I check the rx every time I pick it up to be sure they haven't subbed in a different manufacturer. Little yellow pills.

I am taking Naturethroid, by having it compounded.  Originally it was made in a totally gluten free facility, but they quit manufacturing it.  I'm 75, and have been on thyroid since my 20's, diagnosed Celiac in 2008!

You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication:

To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
