Kosher Gelatin is pretty rare stuff, so I don't think any pharma companies would use it. I'm pretty sure the answer is "none". However, medicine taken purely for its therapeutic effect, and not at all for its taste, doesn't have to be kosher. So the best way to deal with a gelatin capsule is to wrap it in a lettuce leaf and swallow it, so that you don't taste the capsule at all.
In general any gelatin in a food or supplement label that isn't listed as "kosher gelatin" is most likely not kosher. Kosher gelatin is much more expensive that non-kosher gelatin so most manufacturers will not use it unless they want to create a kosher product. If you want to make sure then it is best to purchase a product with reliable kosher certification.

Pig gelatin is commonly used in the production of capsules and certain pharmaceutical formulations. Medications such as some types of antibiotics, vitamins, and over-the-counter pain relievers may contain pig gelatin in their gelatin capsules. Additionally, some vaccines and other biologics may also use pig-derived gelatin as a stabilizer. Always check the specific product's ingredient list or consult a healthcare professional for details on specific medications.
Puritan's Pride does not specify the use of pork gelatin in their Panax ginseng extract capsules.

No. Almost nothing with marshmallows is kosher, due to the gelatin. Packages of kosher marshmallows are an exception to the rule, of course, so it's entirely reasonable to add your own (kosher) marshmallows to kosher hot chocolate.

Yes it is Kosher, blessed by a "Kashrut" or Koshering Rabbi. There is a sign on the jar that indicates it is Kosher for use with milk and meat. Basically what the person above me is trying to say is that yes it is but honestly don't trust everything you read. Just because it says that it is Kosher doesn't mean that we should eat it. You don't know what other chemical substances the makers put in it or (if you're Muslim) did they say BISMILLAH while making it.
Yes, gelatin can be made from plants and if it's made from kosher animals it's also kosher. The reason it has a stigma of no Jew will go near it is because it's usually made from pig or a kosher animal that did not get properly slaughtered rendering not-Kosher.

This is an integral part of making the gelatine however many rabbi's say once it becomes moist it's former status returns while a few say it reatains it permitted status____________--- The above answer does not correctly answer the question asked. There are kosher certified gelatins, they are made from either fish bones or seaweed. And contrary to what the above answer claims, there's no stigma about purchasing kosher gelatin.
