All UK levothyroxine tablets are gluten free.

● All medicines prescribed by your GP are gluten-free

● Medicines not prescribed by your GP will also be gluten-free if there is a Product License (PL) number on the packet

● Sometimes medications can cause side effects that are similar to symptoms that occur after eating gluten. Speak to your GP if you have any unexpected side effects.

Moggie's post identifies a link which includes mentions of lactose-free tablets.
