Can you deduct multivitamins etc

[JaimeG]

You cannot deduct the cost of nutritional supplements, vitamins, herbal supplements, “natural medicines,” etc. unless they are recommended and prescribed Physician or Nurse Practitioner as treatment for a specific diagnosed medical condition.

If these items are prescribed by a Physician you can itemize them as Medical Expenses in Schedule A but only the amount that exceeds 10% of your AGI is allowed to be deducted.
