Q. I was diagnosed with celiac disease and advised to avoid gluten from wheat, rye and barley. Avoiding gluten in my diet has made a huge difference for me. Are there any resources to help me avoid gluten in pills?A. In celiac disease, ingesting gluten triggers the immune system to attack the body, especially the small intestine. This interferes with nutrient absorption. FDA does not require manufacturers to list gluten on drug labels, but you can look up your medicines at www.glutenfreedrugs.com.
