Abstract: Consuming medicine is one of the efforts to maintain and restore physical health. The medicines we consume contain active ingredients and auxiliary ingredients, one of which comes from animal sources. Indonesia is the largest pharmaceutical market in ASEAN and ranks fourth in the world among Muslim consumer markets in the pharmaceutical sector. Drugs improve quality of life and reduce morbidity and mortality. Halal medicinal products are very important because they are Shari'a and must be obeyed by Muslims. Therefore, the halal status of medicinal products and excipients must be fulfilled for a Muslim. This research aims to assess the public's perceptions and attitudes about halal medicine. This research method is descriptive observational, with data collection through questionnaires distributed to respondents.
