Yalkut Yosef: O"H: 204
No beracha is said on vitamins or medicines unless they are pleasantly flavored, in which case the beracha is shehakol. A Holeh Sheyesh Bo Sakana who has been instructed by his doctor to eat non kosher food does not say a beracha on the food. However, if the food itself is permissible but the Holeh is not permitted to eat it at this time, such as on Yom Kippur, a beracha is said. One who is forced to eat food does not say a beracha even if the food is enjoyable. Likewise, even if he ate enough bread to require him to say Birkat Hamazon, he does not say it.
