 Hi Guys, I recommend everyone traveling with medications get a letter from their doctor that states the traveler is under that doctor's care and taking the medications listed in the letter. A diagnosis does not need to be included, just that the traveler is under the physician's care for a "medical condition" that requires the medications listed. The letter should be on the physician's stationery with a contact number given in case there is any question. That usually does the trick and is exactly what I do on my travels. Bon Voyage!
