Is the Amneal brand of Levothyroxine gluten free? I can't seem to find definitive wording that it is.

Glad it was helpful. I hope that you feel better and that your Dr can provide some insight. I'm curious as to whether they think it's related to the pills or not if you wouldn't mind posting back?

Yes, that is the tablet I'm referring to. And your answer is helpful. I have to talk with my Dr at my appt tomorrow as well to be sure. What I'm experiencing as gluten related since starting this might be something else. We'll see. Thank you.

Are you referring to the yellow pills inscribed JSP 516?



If so, the inactive ingredients listed for Amneal Levothyroxine 100 mcg (NDC 69238-1834) are:

- Silicon Dioxide
- Lactose, Unspecified Form
- Magnesium Stearate
- Cellulose, Microcrystalline
- Starch, Corn
- Acacia
- Sodium Starch Glycolate Type a Potato
- D&C Yellow No. 10
- FD&C Yellow No. 6
- Aluminum Oxide

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but those don't appear to be gluten-based ingredients. The question would then be whether there is a risk of cross-contamination on the equipment they use in manufacturing the pills.
