Yes, if there is no other Halal medicine available, you have to consume it to save your life. But looks at our Muslims doctors, they are here in USA for last fifty years but they never influence the pharmaceutical industry to avoid use pork by products in medicine. On other hand Muslims consumers compelled Dunkin Donuts Inc. to replace human hair L-cysteine from their cake donuts.
Gelatin is not the case of Tabdeele-Mahiya because original amino acids of pig collagen remain same in pig gelatin, during gelatin processing the uneatable collagen changes to eatable form in gelatin by just rearranging or destroying the inter peptides bonds like disulphite bonds, nothing destroy during gelatin processing except non protein material.
