  The alien has been determined (in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of HHS) to be a drug abuser or addict. Note that this ground cannot be waived under INA 212(g). An alien who is inadmissible under this provision remains inadmissible until it is determined, under HHS rules for medical examinations, that his or her drug abuse or addiction is in remission.

  An individual who has been found inadmissible under this provision due to drug abuse or drug addiction is not precluded from undergoing a reexamination at a later date at his/her own cost. If, upon reexamination, the civil surgeon or panel physician certifies, per the applicable HHS regulations and CDC’s Technical Instructions, that the individual is in remission, this ground of inadmissibility no longer applies.
