Abstract
The holy month of Ramadan is a time of fasting from dawn to sunset for Muslims across the world. It is an important ritual in the lives of many, including those with chronic health conditions. Clinicians are frequently asked by patients for clinical advice and have little by way of guidance to inform their decision-making.Keywords
