This change has been noted since he resumed office in January 2026, with the latest medical report released on June 4, 2026, not listing the drug. Trump's aides have not provided an explanation for its absence or confirmed whether he is still taking it. The White House stated that the report reflects all clinically relevant medications and that no significant health conditions were omitted.

Trump's health disclosures have faced scrutiny in the past, including his handling of COVID-19 and his medical evaluations. The latest report claims Trump is in 'excellent health' but has been criticized for lacking detailed supporting data.
