Can I claim Salofalk (prescribed for irritable bowl syndrome) as a medical expense deduction?

Can I claim Salofalk (prescribed for irritable bowl syndrome) as a medical expense deduction?

As per the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Prescription drugs and medications that can lawfully be obtained for use by the person only if prescribed by a medical practitioner. Also, the drugs or medications must be recorded by a pharmacist. You cannot claim over-the-counter medications, vitamins, or supplements, even if prescribed by a medical practitioner (except Vitamin B12).
