Taking Medicine for Bladder Infection on Shabbat Night
Question
I was prescribed a one-time powder medication to take at night for treating a bladder infection, as blood was found in my urine. I forgot to take the medication last night; am I allowed to take it tonight, on Shabbat night?
Answer
Shalom Rav
It is permitted to take the medication on Shabbat night.
