The ruling on using an inhaler and oxygen for a fasting person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Is it permissible to use a Kabasin inhaler and oxygen via the mouth while fasting in Ramadan?

Answer:
What enters the stomach is not permissible, whether from an inhaler or otherwise, that enters the stomach and stimulates the body. It contains water and medicine; it contains water and medicine that enters the body. Leave it for the night; use it at night. And if he is unable to wait until night, he uses it and makes up this day, because he is sick. Yes.
