May Allah reward you. The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, regarding Ramadan and the things a person uses, such as eye drops and insulin injections for diabetic patients, what is the Shaykh’s view on them?
Answer:
If something from them reaches the stomach, it is not permissible to use them except at night. As for those where nothing reaches the stomach, such as subcutaneous injections, they do not harm the fast. As for intravenous injections, one should avoid them during the day. Yes.
