The prohibition against taking medicine on Shabbat only applies to a person who does not feel well. Therefore, a person who more or less feels fine may take things on Shabbat that are normally taken only by a person who is not feeling well. For example, some people consume raw eggs to help heal a sore throat, which would not be allowed on Shabbat. A person who wants to make his voice more smooth however, would be allowed to swallow a raw egg even though that is usually not done. Likewise, a person would be allowed to drink a mixture of baking soda and water in order to help his heart burn.
