Can I deduct for medical expenses, a prescription that has been discounted by GoodRx?

Example: Rx normally = $600.  My insurance will not cover any of the Rx; it is too new.  A discount was provided by Goodrx for $200.  I paid the difference of $400.  On the pharmacy receipt it states "#Rx Non-Tax Item.

You can deduct the amount you actually paid ($400) as Medical expenses.
