No details required. They are lumped together in the prescriptions area of TurboTax Online. Just enter the amount.

Medical, dental, and vision expenses are reported on Schedule A and entered in the Deductions & Credits section.

With your return open, search for Schedule A and then select the Jump to link in the search results.
Enter your medical expenses, starting with prescriptions, on the following screens.

You probably already know that you can deduct things like medical and dental fees, co-pays, eyeglasses, prescriptions, lab fees, surgery, and hospital facility fees.

But did you know you can also deduct dentures, contact lens cleaning solution, hearing aid batteries, crutches, mileage to and from the doctor, and expenses for a service dog? See this IRS page on medical expenses to learn which expenses you're allowed to deduct.

Some health-related expenses cannot be claimed per IRS rules like nonprescription supplements, vitamins, over-the-counter medications, toothpaste, health club memberships, and medical marijuana (even if it's legal in your state). See this IRS list of common, but nondeductible medical expenses.

Be sure to document each medical expense you claim with receipts, credit card statements, mileage records, (etc.) and keep them with your tax records.

Tip: You can deduct the portion of medical expenses that exceeds 7.5% of your adjusted gross income (AGI) for 2021.

Did you use the Desktop CD/Download installed program before? You can add details in that. Looks like you are using the Online version this year. Online is different.
