Best Answer

You can include in medical expenses costs for prescribed medicines and drugs. You can deduct medical expenses only if you itemize deductions on IRS Form 1040 Schedule A and only to the extent they exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income.

Most people do not have enough medical expenses to exceed the 7.5% threshhold so do not get a medical expense deduction.
