Re: traveling int. can I take my meds?

I have gone through a LOT of customs, and none of them have ever given a rats behind about ANY of my meds. Some of them have beeen controlled in one country and not in the next, some of them originated in the US but I had them in sample bottles because gods knows I couldn't afford a year's worth worth of zoloft.

In travelling I have found so far that when yougo to a doctor and get a prescription, onlyhere are the pills transferred to a special amber bottle with alabel with your info on it. Every where else you bring in your script and the pharmacist gives you a box of meds. If there are special instructions, she (always she where I have been) might write 1 x 3 to indicate 3 times a day.

Obviously if ou are touting around a large number of C-II pure meds, morphone, hydroporphone, oxymorphone, et al, you should be safe and take a letter from your physician or copy of the prescription with you. But really, if you have something in original packaging (as I did with the sample bottles) or "specially made for you" like your prescription bottle, you've already got the authority to carry it in most parts of the world. I would only worry about the drugs I listed above because of their potential monetary value.

In short, your T3's and valium in their original script bottles are fine.
