Does Spironolactone Contain Gluten?
I am taking spironolactone for acne. I recently have been diagnosed with celiac disease. Does this medication contain wheat or the protein gluten found in wheat, barely, or rye. I get severe abdominal pain when I consume anything containing gluten. Please answer my question. My pharmacist couldn t answer it for me.

Dear user,
I really understand your concern.
Spironolactone is a gluten-free drug.
However, spironolactone may cause abdominal discomfort, but it's not related to its ingredients.
Hope this helps.
