Abstract
Vitamin C offers numerous benefits, including its role in the immune system. This factor necessitates the intake of exogenous vitamin C since the human body cannot synthesize it endogenously. Long-acting drugs are known for providing long-term therapeutic effects. The halal and haram aspects of Islam are of great importance due to the potential doubt or syubhat between the two. There are different methods for producing vitamin C, such as Reichstein's method or classical two-step fermentation. In general, vitamin C synthesis involves biotransformation by microorganisms. One approach to creating long-acting preparations is coating them with gelatin. A product's halal or haram status is determined by its raw materials, additives, and manufacturing process. Vitamin C production typically involves fermentation using microorganisms, so a halal growth medium must be considered. Long-acting vitamin C preparations that use gelatin should also be evaluated regarding their halal status. If the gelatin comes from halal animals, the law depends on the production process. However, if the gelatin comes from haram animals, the law is haram.
