Hi, all,

I will be having a C-section in August, and I wanted to know if I need
to talk to the doctors about GF IV drugs. I'm under the impression that
gluten-containing ingredients in oral medications are used as binders or
coatings. So would there be a reason for drugs administered
intravenously to have gluten in them? In addition to the epidural, I'll
be receiving IV antibiotics, as well. Any input would be helpful.
Thanks!
