Quick Reference

The IRS considers medicines and drugs purchased for medical care to be qualified medical expenses. Following the CARES Act of 2020, over-the-counter medicines and drugs, such as Beano, no longer require a prescription to be eligible for reimbursement from HSAs, FSAs, and HRAs.

When It Qualifies

  • Must be used for medical care to alleviate or prevent a physical or mental defect or illness.

When It Doesn't

  • Not eligible if used for general health, cosmetic purposes, or if it is merely beneficial to general health.
