Change to gluten-free prescriptions

From 1 April 2026, people aged 25 and over will no longer get NHS prescriptions for gluten-free bread or flour mix.

What does this mean for you?

  • You will need to buy gluten-free bread or flour mix yourself from shops or online
  • You should keep to a gluten-free diet

If you are aged 24 or under, you will continue to get your NHS prescription until you are 25.
