Flying with Compounded medications

[Guest guest]

My family might be traveling to Europe this Spring. Does anyone know if there

are any issues with TSA or Customs regarding compounded medications?

I asked Royal Abrams Pharmacy if they knew of any, and they didn't. I am

assuming I will just carry what I need in my carry-on and in the original

bottle. My fear is that as the capsules are not marked in any way, this could

cause concern.

I looked at the TSA website and they seemed to indicate you are allowed to carry

prescription medications and homeopathic medications, but they must be

inspected. I would think pharmaceutical drugs would have some identifying mark

on them, but obviously not-so with compounded capsules.

I'm just remembering having my shampoo taken away from me several years ago. If

they took away my compounded timed-release T-3 I'm not sure what I'd do!

I haven't flown in many years, so I'm not sure what to expect. Anyone have any

thoughts or advice?

Thank you,

K
