What medications can be carried on an airplane in hand luggage and luggage. Medicine (tablets) in hand luggage or luggage

Hello everyone, my dears! I know that many travelers have questions about how to provide themselves with all the necessary and usual medications abroad. So come on, today I’ll tell you in detail how to carry medications on an airplane.

In general, the rules are simple and there are not very many of them. Therefore, read them carefully once, and most of the questions will disappear on your own. So...

In this article:

1. Customs restrictions

I never tire of repeating that the most important restriction when flying to another country and when crossing state borders is customs rules. It is customs that controls the import and export of various goods. And medications in this case were no exception.

Some drugs contain potent substances. Most often this is:

  • strong painkillers
  • psychotropic drugs
  • hypnotic.

It is these medications that may raise questions. If your first aid kit is quite standard and you do not need special drugs, then you probably don't have anything to worry about. But remember that each country may introduce its own rules and restrictions on the import of medicines at any time.

For example, such a harmless drug as Nurofen Plus contains codeine (a drug). It is better to exclude such products from your first aid kit.

And if you are flying domestically, then again you should not worry about your first aid kit. However, there are some rules that we'll talk a little lower.

2. Security restrictions

Another control that each of us is subjected to at the airport is security control. It is he who determines how many liquids can be carried on board, and establishes other, even sometimes seemingly ridiculous, rules. So.

1) The number of drugs transported within the country is not limited, but all of them must be in production packaging. Agree, tablets of unknown origin in a box may look suspicious and raise questions among control officers.

2) Liquid medicines obey general rule transportation: each container is no more than 100 ml, the quantity is no more than 10 pieces and all of them must be packed in one transparent plastic bag with a zipper.


3) If during a flight it is necessary to take liquid medications whose volume exceeds 100 ml, a doctor’s prescription and an extract from the medical history are required. And the medicine must be presented at the control.

4) It is prohibited to transport psychotropic and narcotic drugs or medications that contain them. An exception is made only in cases where it is necessary for the passenger. Then you need to present a certified extract from your medical history, a prescription from a doctor, and you may need a receipt confirming the legal purchase.

Additionally, if you are flying abroad, all documents must be translated into English language and certified by a notary.

My first aid kit

I admit that I have never had any problems with carrying medications on an airplane: I do not need to constantly take a specific drug, and my first aid kit always contains the simplest and most necessary medications. Let me list them:

1. Antipyretic: paracetamol - 2 plates.
2. Painkiller: citramon - 1 plate.
3. For stomach problems: Activated carbon- 3 plates, smecta - 3 bags, hastal - 1 plate, imodium - 1 plate.
4. For allergies: cetrin - 1 pack.
5. To quickly combat colds: Rinza powder - 1 package.
6. Bandage, set of plasters, iodine pencil.
7. MANDATORY: Lyoton - 1 small tube.

I took all this with me in my hand luggage.

Medical devices and devices

Besides hand luggage(that is, the main bag) you can take the following things into the aircraft cabin:

cane, crutches and other orthopedic devices;
dry ice for storing medicines or products (no more than 2 kg per person);
electronic thermometer, tonometer (some allow mercury, but it’s better not to risk it);
- barometer or mercury manometer in a case (hermetically packed and sealed);
needles for subcutaneous injections(with proper medical confirmation).

Dear friends, I hope that this short article turned out to be useful for you. I thank you for your attention. I think you will find it interesting to read

That’s all for today, thank you again for your attention and bye!


You can transport a regular travel first aid kit without any problems. But if you are forced to regularly take prescription medications, there are certain requirements.

The requirements for carrying medications on an airplane differ depending on whether you will be crossing the border or not.

If you plan to fly across Russia, then there are no restrictions on movement medicines No.

You can carry any amount of medicine in your luggage, but you need to remember about liquids in your hand luggage.

According to aviation safety rules, you can take no more than 1 liter of liquid into the aircraft cabin, in containers with a volume of no more than 100 ml each.

If you need to transfer medicine for yourself and the container volume is more than 100 ml, then take with you a prescription from a doctor or an extract from your medical history signed and stamped.

If you are arriving or departing from Russia:
Be sure to check out the list medicinal substances and drugs that are prohibited for import and export. Please note that the list contains not only the names of drugs, but also the names of prohibited substances. If they are contained in your medicine, then they are prohibited for transportation without the appropriate documents (prescription or doctor’s certificate).

Most often, painkillers containing narcotic substances, such as codeine (Pentalgin, Piralgin, Solpadein, Nurofen Plus), as well as some cough medications, such as Codelac Broncho, are prohibited.

Another point to keep in mind is the amount of medication. If you are carrying more than 5 packages of one item, even if there are no restrictions on import and export, this is considered a small wholesale.

Flights abroad:
Before flying abroad, you should familiarize yourself with the customs regulations of the country where you are flying. Many countries prohibit the import of drugs and psychotropic substances their list and names differ from the Russian one.

For example, the import of Corvalol and Valocordin is prohibited in many countries. Active substance These drugs are phenobarbital, which in a number of countries is considered a narcotic and is prohibited for import and sale. In particular, Corvalol is prohibited for import into Lithuania and the USA, and Valocordin is prohibited for import into Lithuania, Estonia, the USA and the UAE.

If you are taking any medication on a regular basis and it falls under the liquids restriction in your carry-on baggage (its volume is more than 100 ml), you must:

1. Pack the medications in advance in a separate transparent bag and take it out when going through security.

2. Before your belongings are scanned by the security service, inform that you are carrying liquid medications and their volume is more than 100 ml.

3. Show the security officer a prescription or an extract from your medical history. If the case occurs abroad, the prescription must be translated into English (or the language of the country where you are being screened) by a certified translator.

Please note that the medicine must be in its original packaging. You cannot pour it into your container.

If you are transporting medications that contain illegal narcotic or psychotropic substances, be sure to take a prescription from your doctor. Even if it is available without a prescription in the country where you bought it, for example Corvalol.

The medicine must be in original packaging. This is not always convenient, especially if you need to take a lot of pills, but these are the rules.

It is prohibited to transport such medications in your own container!

These medications must be in a transparent bag; before inspection, take it out and place it separately for scanning.

Show your prescription or medical history from your doctor. If you are abroad, your prescription must be translated into English (or the language of the country where you are being screened) by a certified translator.

In many foreign countries, prescription medications are issued not in branded packaging, but in a standard jar with a sticker. The sticker must contain the name of the drug, as well as the name of the patient. In this case, an extract from the medical history or a prescription is not required.

Australia is the strictest country when it comes to the movement of medicines. Even if you are carrying medications in your checked baggage, you will be asked to provide a prescription.

Some medications require certain storage conditions. For example, many injectable medications need to be refrigerated. In this case, you can take on board the plane a small cooler bag for storing medicines or a special container with ice or cold packs, but the doctor's certificate or the instructions for the medicine must indicate that the medicine must be stored in the refrigerator.

If the instructions are only in Russian, and you are undergoing inspection abroad, then it must also be translated.

What happens if I don't have a doctor's prescription?

Since prohibited medications are classified as narcotic and psychotropic substances, violation of the rules for their movement may result in criminal liability.

Always pay attention to the composition of painkillers, sleeping pills, sedatives, diuretics (diuretics), cough and heart medications. They may contain narcotic and psychotropic substances.

When preparing for a trip, an experienced tourist always takes a first aid kit with him. We'll tell you which medications will raise questions at customs, how to pack medications, and what it's best not to take on a trip.

Remember 3 main rules:

  1. only original factory packaging,
  2. check the list of prohibited drugs in the country of arrival,

What medications can be carried in hand luggage?

Among travelers there are many who have enough serious problems with health, and who need to constantly take any medications. There are situations when the medicine needs to be taken immediately. The question of what medications can be taken on a plane in hand luggage is very relevant.

Medicines have their own division: for transportation in hand luggage and for other drugs that are checked into the luggage compartment of the aircraft.

Most tablets can be carried on the plane and carried in their bag, which the passenger takes with them into the cabin. Only their number is taken into account. Minor difficulties arise with the use of aerosols, injection cans, tubes of ointments or containers with any liquid solutions. These types dosage forms carried in hand luggage only in as a last resort and have their own transportation rules, which were discussed above.

Situations are different, and each requires its own individual approach and the attention of airline employees. Most often, the treatment prescribed by the doctor must be followed, regardless of the conditions and situation. People with bronchial asthma it is necessary to relieve the attack using inhalation. Diabetics cannot do without insulin injections and syringes. Passengers with visual impairments sometimes need to be treated contact lenses liquid medicines. An epileptic may not survive the flight without constant medication.

Some airlines allow passengers to carry one mercury or electronic thermometer. You can also have a blood pressure monitor with you. You can find out what you are allowed to take into the cabin and under what conditions on the website of a specific air carrier.

What medications can be carried in luggage?

If the drug is allowed to be exported, it is better to check it in your luggage. Most often, such medications are various liquids, antiseptics and gels. Also, medications with a volume exceeding 100 ml are checked into the luggage compartment.

Every plane has its own first aid kit for both passengers and crew. There is always an opportunity to notify flight attendants about an emergency situation. Airline employees are well trained in emergency first aid.

Features of transporting medicines abroad

The Russian Customs Service has compiled lists of medications that can be taken on the plane. The government of our country has approved a list of psychotropic, potent and narcotic substances that are under control. Drugs that are not included in these three categories, as well as if the quantity of any medicine is no more than 5 packages, will easily pass through customs inspection.

Important! If there is a need for a medicine from the prohibited list, then you need to fill out a special declaration. With such items you will have to go through special control, called the red corridor, where you will need to fulfill all the requirements of the customs officer and present him with a declaration and medical report doctor If the passenger also takes with him the receipts for which the medicine and prescription were purchased, then this will only be a plus.

The doctor's certificate must contain:

  • name of the medicine;
  • dosage and frequency of administration;
  • date when treatment began;
  • the date on which it ended or is expected to end.

When transporting medicines within the country, obstacles are not specified in the legislation. To be on the safe side, you can take an extract from your medical history, but usually it is not required. International customs has stricter requirements for such items, and when transporting them across the border, it is necessary to have confirmation that the drugs were purchased legally.

Important! The export ban applies not only to the list of drugs listed above, but also to all other drugs containing substances from the list of the Federal Customs Service.

When making purchases in foreign countries, carefully study the composition of goods and products. There may be potent substances inside that the traveler may not be aware of. In European Union countries, a guest with a common cough medicine that includes codeine will not be understood. In Germany, we will have to answer for our popular antipyretic and painkillers that contain nimesulide. And Russian Corvalol and Valocordin are included in the lists of prohibited substances in almost all territories of the countries. Metamizole sodium, contained in analgin, will also entail appropriate punishment.

It's good if similar cases will only end in a fine or administrative liability. Each country has its own rules. What can be sold in Russia without a prescription may be prohibited for free use in other countries. Australia is the most cautious country in terms of medicines and it is worth knowing that if you are going there, you must have a doctor's prescription for any drug, even if it is ascorbic acid or activated carbon.

The lists of prohibited substances are constantly updated, so it is difficult to keep abreast of all the innovations. Therefore, it is better to prepare for the trip in advance.

If the medicine is vital for a person going abroad, you should have all the recipes, receipts and recommendations of the medical institution with signatures, seals and English translation. It would not be amiss to assure Required documents at the notary. For example, if a traveler has medical status diabetic, he has the opportunity to obtain a special passport for a person who constantly needs insulin.

What is better to take on a trip?

Essential medicines, on which not only the health but also the life of the passenger depends, must be in the first aid kit - capsules, pills or syringes. Yes, you will have to run around a lot and collect a lot of supporting evidence, but you will have peace of mind. Also worth considering emergencies and have first aid supplies with you. When you fly to a foreign country, you can buy a lot of things on the spot, which means you shouldn’t stock up on such things for future use.

It will be useful to have with you on flights:

  1. A remedy for ear congestion during a flight – Nazivin. A few minutes before the flight you just need to drop it into your nose.
  2. Medicines that prevent motion sickness - Avia-sea or Dramamine.
  3. Iodine for children in case of abrasions and wounds.
  4. Hydrogen peroxide, cotton wool and bandages.
  5. Sterile patch.
  6. Wet wipes.
  7. Diarrhea remedy and activated charcoal - in case the local cuisine is not suitable.
  8. Painkiller Pentalgin.
  9. As allergic remedy– Cetrin or Laratadine.
  10. When visiting a hot country, it is better not to forget sunscreen.
  11. For exotic countries, it is good to take insect bite repellent.

Often prices for such things are unreasonably inflated, especially in resort areas. That is why you need to take care of the planned transportation of medications at home.

The answer to the question of whether it is possible to carry medications on board an airplane is positive, but it is better to study all the rules and requirements at the stage of planning the trip. It is advisable to get advice from the airline office and from a doctor to avoid unnecessary problems and waste of your personal time and effort.
