Legal doctor prescribed drugs in MX?


If you have prescribed drugs from your doctor, can you have problems with MX police or migration? Heart 💜 medicine. Blood pressure medicine. Sleeping pills. Prescribed by a medical doctor.

I have never been in a situation where I have been asked about my meds, but I make sure that they are all in the original containers with my name on them, and I carry a print out of my VA prescriptions.



If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!

No problem if a reasonable qty in original container with rx/label.





Woke!

When I'm traveling with 6 month supply of meds, all prescription, and it's found, I'm always questioned. Wife too. Reasonable to me isn't reasonable to young MX men.

Have meds tucked away in suitcase and not easy to see/find.

What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

It's wise to have your prescription/receta with your drugs.I've been asked a few times.
