Quick Reference
Expenses paid for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease are considered qualified medical expenses. Psoriasis is a recognized medical condition, and creams specifically formulated to treat it fall under this definition. The CARES Act of 2020 also clarified that over-the-counter medicines and drugs, including those for treating conditions like psoriasis, are eligible without a prescription.
When It Qualifies
- •The cream must be used for the treatment of psoriasis or another diagnosed medical skin condition.
- •It must not be used for general cosmetic purposes or for conditions that are not medical in nature.
When It Doesn't
- •Creams used solely for cosmetic purposes, such as moisturizing or anti-aging, without treating a specific medical condition.
