Deductions & credits

Those expenses would seem to fall under general improvements of your health, which are not deductible

You may not deduct funeral or burial expenses, over-the-counter medicines (i.e., medicines or drugs that aren't required to be prescribed), toothpaste, toiletries, cosmetics, a trip or program for the general improvement of your health, or most cosmetic surgery. You may not deduct amounts paid for nicotine gum and nicotine patches that don't require a prescription.
