To avoid problems when passing through customs, keep medications in their original, labeled containers. Bring a copy of your prescriptions and the generic names for the drugs. If a medication is unusual or contains narcotics, carry a letter from your doctor stating your need to take the drug. If there is any doubt about the legality of bringing a certain drug into a country, consult the embassy or consulate of that country first.
