Curing a Cough: Kosher Concern?

Does a medicine chest contain hidden kashrus perils? Join Rabbi Eli Gersten, the Rabbinic Coordinator with OU Kashruth charged with recording OU halachic policies, as he explores a range of views on the potential kashrus issues with liquid medicines. Rabbi Gersten discusses such questions as: Does Halacha view medicine as “food”? Is there an halachic difference between adult needs and children’s needs? Is there any need to seek kosher-certified drugs? You’ll see that this topic is nothing to sneeze at! If you have questions or comments for Rabbi Gersten please send them to: gerstene@ou.org
