What requirements apply to traveling with medications and medical devices, such as needles or oxygen tanks?
Prescription medications should be in their original containers, it is advised that you travel with no more than personal use quantities, a rule of thumb is no more than a 60 day supply. If medications or devices are not in their original containers, you should have a copy of your prescription with you. Medicinal purchases that you make abroad may be subject to FDA restrictions, which are detailed on our web site. If you are traveling with medical devices such as needles or oxygen tanks that could pose a security or safety concern to others, be sure to have a copy of the prescription for those items from your doctor. You should also contact the Transportation Safety Administration about any additional requirements they may have.
