Medical Expenses co pays etc.

[jkssings]

Can I add co pays and prescription charges to my taxes?

[Marketstar · Accepted solution]

Yes, you can deduct co pays and prescription drugs if you itemize and the total expenses for you, your spouse, and your dependents exceed 10% of your adjusted gross income (7.5% if you're 65 or older as of December 31, 2016). The deduction is limited to the expenses above and beyond this amount.
