What is the ruling regarding taking injections during Ramadhan?
What is the ruling on taking intravenous injections during Ramadhan when we are fasting? Is it permissible? Does it break the fast? What about other types of injections? Will they break the fast?

 

Ayatullah Hadavi Tehrani has replied to this inquiry in such:

 

Taking injections aren't considered eating or drinking and don’t break the fast (making taking them permissible), although it is better to refrain from nutritional injections and ones that are tonics.
