Maureen reported:

Considering just prescription medications, has anyone found one without
starch that is not gluten free? If so, details from the manufacturer,
please.

I've used that criterion to screen drugs before calling and have yet to
find an exception.

In short, I'm asking for evidence, rather than "may contain gluten".
