Question
My wife cannot swallow pills at all, so she crushes them and takes them mixed with chocolate. The pill is for a fungus she has on her foot and it has a very bitter taste. What should she do on Yom Kippur?
Answer
Shalom and blessings,
She should take the pill before the fast and after the fast.
