FSA/HSA coverage for vitamins/supplements etc...

Hey folks!

Happy new year and I hope you all had a great holiday! I was wondering if anyone has had any experience covering their vitamins, supplements etc... through an fsa account. I know they ask for a medical necessity letter from your doctor. Just curious if this worked for anyone. I added 1k to my account this year and I'm afraid I won't get much use out of it outside of these things.

yes - you just need a letter from your clinic saying they're medically necessary
