# 4451 Not a Drinking Problem

Question

Rov. If someone has to take pills on Tzom Gedaliya with water, can he be given an aliya on that day.

Answer

Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that he may be given an aliya if he consumed the minimum water, just enough to swallow the pills.

One should be careful to only drink less than a Revi’is (about 112 ml.) or a ‘Mole Lug’mov’ (a mouthful), whichever is less.
