Travel with Medication

For people traveling with medication; please remember to keep all your medication in your carry-on luggage. Keep a copy of your prescriptions with you. In case you lose your pills you can go to a pharmacy and get refills of your lost medication. You may need special permission from your insurance company and you may have trouble replacing narcotics. If you will be out of town when you need to refill your prescription you can get a waver to refill the drug before you leave town. Communicate with your pharmacist about traveling and getting drugs before you leave. If you are traveling within the US you may easily get your prescription filled at chain pharmacies like Walgreens and CVS. If you travel a great deal even Target can be a good place to keep your prescriptions.
If you are traveling outside the US, make a copy of your Passport picture and keep it available in case you lose your passport or it is stolen.
