You can travel with whatever medication. People take all kinds of medications for all kinds of reasons, and they can't stop people from traveling with them. I have never had a problem either, and I would assume you could carry them in any container you choose.

Don't put them in a vitamin container. Leave them in the original prescription bottle. Police will not question you about your legal prescriptions. Besides, they probably wouldn't know what acyclovir is for anyway.

[Beachdude1984]

The reason I say do not put them in a vitamin bottle is because acyclovir tablets do not look like vitamins, and if an officer happened to look, it would appear much more suspicious than the pharmacy-issued prescription bottle. Millions of people travel with prescription meds every day, no officer is going to raise an eyebrow about a legal prescription bottle with your name on it.

Beachdude has a very good point. If you want to play it safe, keep them in the original packaging.

ok.. only im scared about they take the pills in public u know? to check if that pills are not drugs.. IM FROM LATINOAMERICA.. and when we travell to europe o eeuu they check all our stuff .. i dont want to be discover on front on other people...

As beachdude said, they likely won't know what acyclovir is for, and your chances that they searching and questioning you about a medication that you are prescribed is slim. Don't worry, pack your meds and enjoy your trip.

I agree, not only will they not know what Acyclovir is, 99.99999% of anyone in the room won't know what it is for either.

 

Stop worrying and go have fun ... :)
