What is the ruling on the fast of one who swallowed medicine stuck in his throat at suhoor, and who felt the taste of the medicine in his mouth the following day?

A person is not required to make up the days they fasted, and their fast on those two days is valid. Swallowing something that catches in the throat or the lingering taste of medicine in the mouth does not affect the validity of the fast. One must strive against obsessive thoughts and not succumb to them.
