Kashrut – Vegan Vitamin

Question

May one take an oral vitamin marketed in the USA and certified as vegan, containing no animal-derived ingredients, even though it does not have kosher supervision?

Answer

Shalom,

Since it does not have a pleasant taste, is only meant to be swallowed and is intended for medicinal purposes, it is permitted.
