Is magnesium citrate fsa eligible?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for magnesium

It depends on how you’re using it and your specific FSA/HSA plan.

- If you’re buying magnesium citrate as an OTC medication (e.g., a laxative), that is typically eligible for FSA/HSA reimbursement.
- If you’re buying it as a dietary supplement (general magnesium supplement with no specific medical diagnosis), that is usually not eligible unless your plan requires and you have a doctor’s note or prescription for a diagnosed condition.

Additional tips:
- Since the CARES Act, OTC medicines are generally eligible, but rules vary by plan. keep itemized receipts.
- If in doubt, check your plan’s eligible expense list or contact your FSA/HSA administrator. They can confirm based on your exact product and use case.

If you tell me your plan administrator (e.g., HealthEquity, WEX, Optum, etc.) or the exact product form (laxative vs. supplement), I can give more specific guidance.
