My daughter is so sensitive that I try not to buy purchase anything that does not say gluten free. I have looked online at differnt websites with gluten free medications, but scared to purchase. Can anyone please help me? Thanks!

Can you tell us what kind of meds she needs? If they are script find out the maker from the pharmacey before you pick the script up and then call the maker directly.

In the past I've used Open Original Shared Link

Near the bottom are links for an alphabetical list, list by therapeutic category, PDFs etc.

Sorry I didn't make myself clear on medications needed. She does not take any prescription medications as of right now. Just wanted to make sure that my cabinets were stocked for allergy, cold/flu, cough etc. She is extremely sensitive and I prefer not to use anything not labels gluten free. Thank you for any and all information!

I've noticed lately that Target and Meijer have been listing on the packaging of their store brand OTC meds if a product is gluten free.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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/
