Giving a non-nutritive injection to a fasting person

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q4: A dentist sometimes needs to give a sedative injection intravenously or intramuscularly (non-nutritive). Does this affect the fast? Knowing that the patient may be able to postpone the treatment until night or even until after Ramadan.
A4: There is nothing wrong with giving a fasting person an injection if it is non-nutritive and he needs it for treatment, though postponing it until night is more cautious.
