Technically, non-prescription meds are not HSA eligilble. That said, I've never heard of the card denying specific items. After all, you could theoretically buy whatever you want with HSA funds as long as you pay the taxes and penalties at the end of the year for ineligible purchases.
Some stores, like Walgreens, will not apply the HSA to non-eligible products. You should use your HSA card first to pay for the eligible items, then the cashier will tell you to pay with something else for the remaining items.
I prefer it this way.

I'm not saying I've not ever bought anything that didn't apply to 'medical' related because I probably have.
But the last 2-3 times my wife has been denied have been legit like band aids, neosporin (sp?), cough drops, or something along those lines.
I didn't realize non-prescript stuff doesn't apply? I understand why but that's also ridiculous as it can literally prevent a doctors visit.
