If you keep your medication in the ORIGINAL container that has your name - docs name -name of the med -etc. on it - it is perfectly legal to have it with you. One suggestion though - make sure you put it in your carry on - if your luggage gets lost at least you will still have your meds!

How much luggage are you bringing? I'm very small - I could probably fit into a suitcase! Rio for a couple of weeks?????? I'm so jealous! I hope that you have a blast! (In Rio - of course you will have a blast - what am I saying!)
