Quick Reference
The IRS considers medicines and drugs that treat a medical condition to be qualified medical expenses. Following the CARES Act, over-the-counter (OTC) medicines and drugs, including antifungal powder, no longer require a prescription to be eligible for reimbursement from health spending accounts. Antifungal powder is used to treat fungal infections, which are recognized medical conditions.
