Continuity of Medication on Shabbat
Question
Is it permissible to take Curatane/Roaccutane on Shabbat (this is a medication that reduces acne)? Basically, it must be taken every day and cannot be stopped. Is there an issue on Shabbat?
Answer
Hello,
If continuity is necessary, it is permissible to take it on Shabbat.
