With the Fast starting Motzoi Shabbos, is it permitted to take pre-fast (Easyfast) pills before Shabbos?

 

Please see the following excerpt from our latest Halachic Guide.

If you take pills designed to help you fast easily, there is room to be lenient to do so on this Shabbos. However, it is best to premix them into food before Shabbos and then eat that dish before the onset of the fast.
