Question

Can I take Piriton allergy tablets or liquid form to Turkey?

Answer 1

You shouldn't have any trouble with the tablets, I'm not sure what the current airline restrictions are on travelling with liquids.

You can easily obtain antihistamine tablets etc here in Turkey at any chemist/pharmacy (eczane in Turkish).

Piriton is made by Glaxosmithkline whose products are widely available in Turkey so if you can't travel with them you will easily be able to replace them.

Answer 2

yes you can. you can stick the liquid in your luggage. I have to take loads of tablets and I'm like a mobile pharmacy when I go to Turkey. some of my medication is unpronounceable in English, let alone translatable to Turkish lol. I take my repeat slips with me for the 'hard' stuff and just carry on my antihistamines. If you are still worried then call the airline you are travelling on and ask them their policy on medications.

Answer 3

yes, but in suitcase. if taking in hand luggage would have to be under 100 mls. if prescription you need to have your detailed prescription with you along with the medicine.
