Quick Reference
Over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, including laxatives like MiraLAX, are considered qualified medical expenses. The CARES Act of 2020 removed the requirement for a prescription for OTC medicines to be eligible for reimbursement from health spending accounts. This means you can purchase MiraLAX with your HSA, FSA, or HRA funds without needing a doctor's note.
