detectable levels of gluten.

Letter also said, referring to the remainder of McNeil's products, "The source
of starch in this formulation is corn. Other inactive ingredients may be
derived from a source other than corn.
We are not aware of published reports associating the use of our products
according to package label directions with a worsening of symptoms in patients
with celiac disease."
