Question

Hello, Is it permissible to give a medication for infants with constipation called Nuvilac, which comes as a syrup and likely contains dietary fibers and lactulose, without kosher certification? I assume it has a taste because it can be given as is without needing to dilute it with water. Thank you very much

Answer

Hello 

If possible, one should obtain a kosher medication. 

If this is not possible, it is permitted to use.
