prescription meds
Will a dr note specifying the prescription be satisfactory or do I need the actual script? Did you bring all your meds in the actual bottle???? That will take up our whole backpacks!

It's been a few years since our Australia/New Zealand tour but I did not take meds in their original bottles. I printed our prescription lists off My Chart but never needed it. If you would get sick and possibly need other meds, it would be helpful to have the list so they know what you are already taking. We always take a little extra just in case there are any delays getting back home.
Since Covid, I always take at least 7 days' worth extra of medications.
I’ve never been asked to show meds anywhere including this tour. I don’t take original containers but always carry a printout taken from my online health record showing what I take and what for and which Dr prescribed them. I also taken more days worth since Covid.
We did this trip last year and did not take the original bottles. We took a printout of our meds but no one ever asked to see it.
I just take my two weekly meds dispensers. Anywhere we have Internet and I can access MyChart, I don't take a printout of my meds/prescriptions either. Only in a few places, e.g. Africa, will I take a printout. I have never been asked for it.
I have never been asked in last 11 years about the medications that I bring in my daily pill holder.
