31 October 2009 Section 80DD and 80 U are seprate deduction for different purposes.
80 DD is for expenditure incurred for the maintaince and medical treatmen for him self or dependant during the year.

whereas 80U is a fixed deduction for the person suffering from severe disability. Hence you can claim both deduction if you are eligible.
