Gluten-Free Prescriptions - Changes Coming
More than 1,400 people answered a survey about getting gluten-free food on prescription. The NHS Integrated Care Board (ICB) thought about stopping these prescriptions because gluten free food is now easier to buy in shops.
After reading what people said in the survey, the ICB agreed to adjust the plan. The changes start on 1 March 2026.
Adults aged 25 and over will not get NHS prescriptions for gluten-free flour and bread. But if you're under 25 you can still get these items on prescription.
The ICB hopes this will help children and young people get used to a gluten-free diet. It will also help to use NHS resources fairly.
