2- Sometimes an experience which we have in waking life can be unpleasant in the immediate moment, but ultimately is good for us. In dreams, medicine can stand as such a symbol.
3- The spiritual need for a healing influence in our lives is indicated by medicine appearing.
The dreamer can look at what his own requirements are in this domain. [1]
Advice, ideas, rules, or taboos that you don’t necessarily want to heed, but which are in your own best interest (e.g., “a hard pill to swallow”).
Bas tasting: How are you doling out the recommendations and counsel you give others? Is it harsh, or do you remember to add a little sweetness to make it easier to accept?
Injections represent protection against those things that threaten our well-being. Alternatively, these can indicate a sudden increase in energy that conies at just the right time (e.g., a “shot in the arm”). [2]
Depth Psychology: Medicine is either a wonderful symbol stating that your body’s capacity for healing has been activated, or it is a hint that you may soon have to swallow “a bitter pill,” depending of the rest of the images in the dream. [3]
If the medicine comes in the shape of a pill, are you finding something hard to swallow in waking life? Generally though dreams where you are given a dose of medicine, especially if it tastes bitter, are good and suggest a positive turn of events. Paradoxically to administer tablets to someone else suggests that you are the cause of distress or pain to that person. [4]
A means of creating a desired experience or quality of life.
Making a change in the “cause” part of a “cause and effect.” Taking medicine can represent a real-life attempt to fix a problem (physical or otherwise), or a desire to do so.
Losing or forgetting to take your prescription medicine may represent neglecting a particular responsibility (perhaps involving self-care), the importance you place on self-care.

To give medicine to others, denotes that you will work to injure some one who trusted you. [7]
If the dreamer gives medicine to another person, the dream indicates her desire to help someone around her or to give them knowledge. [8]
It is a cure to problems known and sometimes unknown.
This is a very spiritual symbol of “healing guides” attending to the dreamer during sleep. [10]
To dream of giving medicine is a prediction that one of your ambitions will be thwarted. [11]

If liquid, it could be speaking of emotional health. [24]
If it denotes knowledge in the dream, it means that he will benefit from what he learns and accepts the good advice.
If one refuses to take his medicine in the dream, it means that he will deviate from the path of his Lord and shift his interests to his allotment or luck in this world. Medicine in a dream also denotes an inkwell. Licking medicine with one’s index finger in a dream means proclaiming the truth, or it could mean profits from the direction the index finger is pointing at in the dream. Swallowing medicinal powder means greed, self-absorption, reclusion and withdrawal. Taking liquid medicine orally means profits. Swallowing pills in a dream means obliging a sinner to correct himself, to repent, or to go on the straight path. It also could mean caring to teach an ignorant person.
If a woman applies a medicinal make-up in a dream, it represents her menstruation. As for an unwed girl, it means marriage, and for a barren woman, it means a child. Inserting a suppository into the rectum in a dream means spying or eavesdropping.
To take a laxative in a dream means attempting to correct one’s religious devotion, or it could mean washing one’s body from impurities.
The success of one’s attempt depends on the potency of his medicine. Seeking good health in a dream means trying to amend one’s life for the better.
The same meaning applies if one sees himself using an ointment for his eyes.
A yellow colored medicine in a dream means illness.
A laxative in a dream means a cure for a sick person and a warning for a healthy person to correct himself.
A bad tasting medicine in a dream means a fever followed by a chill. Good tasting medicine in a dream is beneficial for rich people, though bad for poor people. Interpreting a cure with a medicine in a dream is not like interpreting recovering without a medicine.
