    You cannot deduct your son's medical insurance premiums unless you can claim him as a dependent on your tax return.

     

    At the very least, he would have to be less than 24 years old or permanently and totally disabled.

     

    See Who can I claim as my dependent? for the rest of requirements to claim him as a dependent.
