Gelatin is another word for Gelatin. It is made from the connective tissues and sinew that holds together an animal's bones and skeletal muscles, so it isn't considered suitable for vegetarians. I doubt that gelatin used in medication would be Halal, either.

Also, Magnesium stearate can be made from animal oils, so isn't necessarily suitable for vegetarians, either.
