Hi all,

As the Yom Tov Pesach is around the corner, we would like to remind you again, You should exercise extreme caution and consult with your doctor and Rabbi/Rav before making a decision not to take a medication on Pesach. As important as one treats the laws of Kashrus, one is also obligated to treat the Mitzva of “V’Nishmartem M’Od L’Nafshotaichem” – “Take care of your health”. Therefore, under mo circumstances should an individual forego taking a prescribed medication of Pesach (and during the year…) without first consulting one’s physician and Rav for a careful analysis of the situation. Remember! We are eating Matzoh’s… Don’t take a chance and please be responsible!

And for the ‘Arba Kosos’ remember, if you are taking Flagyl – Metronidazol you are not allowed to drink any alcohol! and same goes to a lot of other antibiotics.
All other IBD patients should please double check with your doctor if the effectiveness of your medication will not be decreased or render them useless while mixing them with alcohol.

Please forward this email to all patients and their families you know.

We would like to wish you a Chag Kosher V’Samayach! A happy and healthy Yom Tov!
