Question

I'm flying to Spain and don't want to put medication in suitcase.I will have 600ml.Can i have 6 separate 100ml bottles or are you only allowed 1 at 100.

Answer 1

Yes you can carry it on board with you though it has to be in it's original prescription bottle and they may want it to be held at the front of the plain or something. And actually your not suppose to put prescriptions in your suitcases, but instead carry them on do to lose of luggage and it's much safer. Deters from it going into the wrong hands.

Answer 2

From the TSA website:

You are not limited in the amount or volume of necessary medical items you may bring in your carry-on baggage. BUT if the medically necessary items exceed 3 ounces or are not contained in a one-quart, zip-top plastic bag, you MUST declare to one of our Security Officers at the checkpoint for further inspection.

Answer 5

if it is  prescription medication liquid it can be carried in your hand luggage as long as the bottle has your name on it as printed by chemist and drug name etc. i looked into this myself earlyer this year and had no problems  taking it in my hand luggage i just took it out and the scanned is separately. i was also took to get a letter from my g.p with all the drugs stated on it which didnt cost anything from my g.p. i did this but never had to us it  

Answer 6

You can carry any amount of 100 ml that you can fit into that silly one qt baggie. I have to tell you that I have on occassion forgot to place something is the baggie and it was NEVER questioned! For ex I had taken three small bottle os vodka and (forgot-really) and stuck them in the zipper side of my carry-on bc I didn't want to pay $6 for a drink and they never even caught me + I was travelling with this girl once and she said she always leaves a few things in here carry-on! I'd pack the med's ALL YOU   WANT!

Answer 7

In most instances, you may be required to show evidence of necessity for high/dangerous doses of medication to customs. This is usually in the form of GP letter. If you don't need all that medication throughout the flight, then put it in your case.
