    Default Medication

    Is it permissable to fast from food, but at the time when to take medication.
    Or will you be excused that ramadan because of medical needs

    also in a side note can a non muslim attend the mosque and fast with muslims during ramadan

    salaam -

    not sure exactly what you are asking, but my understanding as a lay-person:

    oral medication would break the fast as it is entering the gastrointestinal tract; if you need to take medication twice a day, you could take it before suhoor and after iftar; three times or more a day, you may have an excuse if a muslim doctor says you require the medication and that you are therefore excused from fasting....

    non-muslims are allowed in the mosque and can fast; it may be a good dawah for them...

    Salam.

    I think I understand your question and just to stay on the safe side I would say it does break the fast. So try to take the medication after sunset. or before the fajr azan. And also yes I think they are able to fast with Muslims at the Masjid.
