Biblical Meaning Of Medicine In The Dream: What It Means To Take Medicine In Dreams

If you've been seeing medicine in your dreams, given or taking pills and injections in dreams, then this dream of medicine interpretation is for you.

Dream Of Medicine Biblical Meaning

One of the most perplexing dreams that people often see is a dream about medicines. If you've been searching for the biblical meaning of dreams on medical treatment, I believe you're in the right place. 

Starting from this article, we will explore the meaning of more medical dreams, as the Spirit enables. So sight tight as we learn what a dream of medicine means from a Christian perspective. 

Jeremiah 8:22 NLT
Is there no medicine in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why is there no healing for the wounds of my people? 

First of all, I'll like to remind us that all dreams that have to do with the dreamer consuming any substance shouldn't be taken lightly. Since we cannot readily ascertain the source of what we take as medicines in our dreams, we should be reluctant on permitting and allowing such dreams to continue.

In this article, we will discuss some of the following:

  • Dream of buying medicine
  • Swallowing pills dream meaning
  • Swallowing white pills dream meaning
  • Seeing medicine in dream meaning
  • Meaning of buying medicine in dream

Seeing, being given or accepting to absorb anything that looks like a medication in the dream can either bring positive and negative results on the dreamer. This depends on myriad of factors and symbols surrounding our dream

Spiritual Meaning Of Taking Medicine In A Dream


After the fall of the first man, humanity was no longer immune to the effects of several earth-bound disturbances (including sicknesses). Out of mercy, the Lord had to intervene and reveal to man things he could use from the same earth to heal himself.

That makes God Almighty is the author and source of all forms of beneficial medication. Every form of medication that is used in healing today is derived from plants, herbs, roots and other substances in the earth realm. All of these were created by God.

Ezekiel 47:11-12 KJV
But the miry places thereof and the marishes thereof shall not be healed; they shall be given to salt. And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.

The Lord has always been actively involved in both areas of physical and spiritual healing. It is therefore not impossible for God to pass through dreams of taking medicine to heal us. But there are still exceptions.

Today, medicines can either be used to do good or evil. In the physical realm, there are both beneficial and destructive medicines. That is also not different when it comes to the dream world. Medicine dreams can either be good or bad; from God or the enemy. 

Dream Of Someone Giving You Medicine


A dream of someone giving you medicine can either be a good or bad omen. It strongly depends on whether that dream came from God or the kingdom of darkness. 

The Bible tells us that “while men slept, the enemy came and sowed tares among the wheats and went his way.” - Matthew 13:25. The dream state happens to be the most vulnerable for humans. That is why most times the enemy waits for people to doze off before he starts launching his attacks.

One of the favourite attacks of the enemy is feeding people spiritual poison and all sorts of strange substances in their dreams. 

It is true that God can pass through dreams to bring healing to the sick, but the enemy as well uses the same channel to sow his tares while people sleep.

One of the aforementioned exceptions often applies here. For instance, there are people who often see someone giving them medicines and strange substances to drink in their dreams—sometimes, even when they're not sick. This is clearly a spiritual attack from the enemy; and in most cases those people don't live long afterwards. Let's not be ignorant of the devices of the wicked. 

The Bible tells us that the enemy came to steal, to kill and to destroy (John 10:10). Even when one is sick, they should be reluctant on accepting to be fed any substance that looks like a medicine in their dreams. This might just be the enemy's shortcut to terminating their life.

If a dream of someone giving you medicine comes from God, it will always be godly and full of God's presence. Strange and confusing dreams of unknown people trying to compel you to accept and absorb medicines in dreams often stem from the enemy. 

Dream Of Someone Giving Me Medicine


If you're one of those who have been seeing dreams of strange or unknown people giving you medicine [sometimes they can even masquerade as someone you know], do not just continue accepting and absorbing. You have to pray that such dreams to stop immediately!

Besides, God isn't limited to just dreams as the only channel of reaching out to man. If a child of God is ill, there are other means the Lord can pass through to heal them.

Meaning Of Buying Medicine In Dream


Medicines were made most especially for sick people, not those who are well. There's always less or no demand for medication when one is in their state of optimal well-being. 

When you see yourself buying medicine in your dream, understand that the enemy has plotted to afflict (either you or a loved one) with sicknesses. Whenever you awake from such dreams, start praying immediately to avert and destroy the plots of darkness. 

Dream Of Drinking Herbal Medicine


Sometimes, the raw herbal medicine can be more effective than the ones refined into pills. Even the Bible recommends it. 

Isaiah 38:21 NIV
Isaiah had said to Hezekiah’s servants, “Make an ointment from figs and spread it over the boil, and Hezekiah will recover.”

But seeing yourself drinking herbal medicine in the dream isn't always a good omen. It's a different thing if the Lord steps in to intervene in a health issue through such dreams, but that rarely happens. 

I'm aware that God often reveals herbs to people in dreams as a solution to most health issues that defy modern medical knowledge. This is just in line with what the above scripture says. But getting fed with herbal medicine in a dream is something I can't vouch for as actually coming from God. 

The dreamer should be careful when seeing such dreams—especially when they're not ill. The enemy is fond of bringing sicknesses and all manner of evil upon people by feeding them harmful substances in their dreams. 

Dreaming Of Someone Injecting You  


Another very important aspect of medicine dreams happens to be dreams about receiving an injection. 

Many have seen diverse dreams about getting injected and some are as follows:

  • Dream of being injected with a syringe
  • Dream of vaccine injection
  • Dream of injection in the hand
  • Dream of injection in foot

In critical cases, God can pass through dreams to heal. There are many whose medical cases the doctor declared as impossible and gave them a time limit to live, but the Lord showed up in a dream (sometimes with His Angels), carried out an operation on them and they got well the next day. 

On very rare occasions do injection dreams emanate from God. More than 80% of such dreams are often from the enemy. 

What does it mean when you dream about getting a shot? There are many who often dream of getting a vaccine shot in their dream or any form of syringe injection. In most cases, this happens against their will—they're often forced or manipulated into accepting the injection. This is the handiwork of the enemy. 


The kingdom of darkness injects people in dreams for the following reasons:

  1. As a form of forced initiation into an evil cult or coven.
  2. Spiritual sicknesses can be implanted through this means (which could eventually lead to death). 
  3. The spiritual strength and vibrancy of a person can be greatly reduced or depleted through such dreams.
  4. Destinies, greatness and God's light upon an individual can be diminished through such dreams. 

You see that getting an injection in a dream can be a very deadly spiritual attack from the enemy. If you just woke up from a dream where you were forced to take an injection, you need to start praying seriously to destroy the effects of every form of demonic implant in your life. 

Biblical Meaning Of Being Injected In A Dream


Funny enough, a good number of people who got injected in their dream were not sick in the first place. 

Matthew 9:12
When Jesus heard this, he said, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor–sick people do.”

They took an injection against their will—even when nothing was wrong with them. This further confirms that something isn't right about the dream. The one who injected them is not of God and has ulterior motives for doing so. 

Prayers Against Injection In The Dream


  1. By the authority of Jesus Christ, I come against and destroy the effects of whatever the enemy deposited in me in my dream, in the name of Jesus Christ! 
  2. Every form of forced Satanic initiation in my dream through injection dreams, be cancelled by the blood of Jesus, in the Name of Jesus Christ! 
  3. Powers of darkness risen against me through injection dreams to rob me of and destroy what God has given me, be arrested in the Name of Jesus Christ! 
  4. No weapon of darkness fashioned against me shall prosper; not even spiritual poisons and demonic implants in my dreams, in the Name of Jesus Christ. 
  5. Powers of darkness risen against me to quench the fire of God in me through medicine dreams, be destroyed now, in the Name of Jesus Christ! 
  6. I receive power from God to refuse demonic pills and injections in my dreams, in the Name of Jesus Christ! 
  7. Every persistent demonic medicine dreams plaguing my dream life, I command you to come to cease permanently today, in the Name of Jesus Christ! 
  8. Every conspiracy of the enemy to steal and kill in my life and in my family using medicine dreams, I command you to be frustrated now, in the Name of Jesus Christ. 
  9. I close doors against every form of manipulation in my dreams in the Name of Jesus Christ! 
  10. From now henceforth, no power of darkness shall be able to rob me of my will in dreams, or make me accept things against my will, in the Name of Jesus Christ! 
  11. Father, arise and contend with those that contend with me. Strike every force of darkness that is bent on destroying me, in the Name of Jesus Christ! 

Final Thoughts On Medicine Dreams


To be on the safe side, it is important to pray that God intervenes in our health conditions through avenues other than pills and injections dreams. 

If you're not sick but always receive medicines in form of pills or injections in your dreams, it's time to start praying, rebuking and destroying the effects of such dreams. Pray that such dreams do not continue. 

If you're one of those who always get manipulated into accepting pills and and injections in their dream, this shows a sign of spiritual weakness. When you're filled with the Holy Spirit and the power of God, it becomes difficult for the enemy to do anything he wants with you in the dream. So stay prayerful and stay filled with the Holy Spirit (Ecclesiastes 9:8).
