The Ruling on Nutritional Injections for the Fasting Person in Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I use nutritional injections on the doctor's orders, because in Ramadan I actually get sick, and I use these nutritional injections. Do I have to make up my fast? And is there anything required of me?

Answer:
Yes, nutritional injections are like food and drink; they are not permissible for the fasting person and they invalidate the fast. So you have to make up the days on which you took these injections during the daytime in Ramadan. Yes.
