Deductions & credits

Thank you for your very thoughtful response. The donation was made to a verified organization which must send the medication overseas. I have a receipt. The problem is indeed how to value it. The medicine is TriKafta, a life-saving medication for cystic fibrosis. I had an allergic reaction and had to stop taking a partial dose after a week, so there is nearly a month’s worth. It’s retail value is over $25,000. Does the fact that it went out of the country make a difference? It was a medication that had nowhere to go. 

Thanks again,
