Travel Tips for Packing Med

There are very specific regulations on liquids to be followed. Check and verify these guidelines for changes. Liquids should be small amounts of no more than 3oz in a container. Do not put 3 oz in a 6 oz container and consider that okay as it is not securities job to measure oz as such. Using a quart plastic bag, place these containers inside and zip. If it does not zip, you have too much. The bag should be removed for security, so keep packed as easy access. If you are not carrying these items on, the size limit does not apply, but still pack in a plastic bag. In some cases these can be busted, and the bag can catch the mess and keep away from your clothes and other items. When carrying meds, keep them in their original bottle. Also check with your airline for any concerns or changes. It is also good to keep these in a seperate bag for secuirty. There is sometimes concerns as to what qualifys as a liquid, concerning creams. I still treat and count these as a liquid. Keep in mind the purpose of checking these items are for safety reasons and avoiding conflicts. If you are carrying children's meds, make sure to include a mouth syringe or tube spoon for measuring convenience. If you have seriously needed meds, consider bringing a doctor's statement/prescription in case of emergency or loss of medications.
