US Customs could care less that you have a prescription for any med........No matter what it is. If they see the package, they inspect the package, they can use their powers to let it go thru or snatch it from you.

Prescription does not protect you at all.




Strictly speaking you are correct, however, I've seen cases reported where folks with U.S. Prescriptions have successfully embarassed FDA/Customs into releasing meds ordered by mail from Canada. One in particular was a retired guy, who was getting his Lipitor from Canada. So if you want to respond to a seizure letter with copy of your U.S. Rx and send a copy of all of materials to your congress-person, they may release meds to you.
