Reference for Chullin 18:5
א"ל רבא
Whenever there arises a doubt concerning a prohibition based on danger to life the stricter view is preferred, and the same is the case with regard to a doubt in connection with a ritual prohibition! - Said Abaye to him, Is there then no difference between laws concerning danger to life and laws concerning ritual prohibitions?
