“After updating from 9.0.2 to 9.2, the Medications complication is no longer available to select (at least for the Modular watch face), and the location previously defined for it is now set to ‘Off’.”

First, you should remove a medication in the Health app. ( Delete Medication.)

On your Watch, touch & hold the Watch Face to enter edit mode.
Tap Edit, tap on the complication location that has Medications and switch for something else.
Reboot Apple Watch.
Re-enter Edit menu and add the Medications complication back.
Tip: Also try to add Medications on a different Watch Face and see if it makes a difference!

3. Re-Add Watch Face
The next step is to delete the Watch Face completely and re-add it from the paired iPhone:

Open the Watch app and browse the My Watch tab.
Tap on Edit next to My Faces.
Use the red ‘-‘ icon to remove Modular Watch Face or any theme that fails to load the Medications complication.
Reboot Apple Watch.
Re-add and reconfigure the recently deleted Watch Face. Does it help?
