HB 3855 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to an exemption from sales and use taxes for certain diabetic supplies.

HB 3855 exempts specific diabetic supplies from Texas sales and use taxes. The bill amends Tax Code Section 151.313(a) to explicitly include glucose test strips, lancets, insulin pens, blood glucose meters, continuous glucose monitors, insulin pumps, and related replacement parts. This directly benefits people with diabetes who purchase these medical supplies. The change adds these items to the existing list of tax-exempt medical products under Texas law.
