Does anyone have celiac and can they tell me about not only gluten free meds, but meds that don't hurt her intestines, or cause more disturbing nightmares and neuro symptoms?
Thank you!

I am celiac. All I do is read the labels for OTC meds and make sure they are gluten free... and for prescriptions, I make the pharmacist double check for gluten free before I pay for them. I also remind my doc when he's prescribing meds that I'm gluten free and sometimes he writes it on the prescription itself.
I have found that often the brand name of a drug will be gluten free and the generic wont be, so something to watch for. Make sure if the pharmacist is giving you the generic that they READ the generic.
Best of luck.
