What happens when I declae my Birth control(Apri) to a TSA Secrity Officer?

Question

I saw the one vid on TSA's website. But I couldn't really hear or anything.

With my luck Ill end up bring 2 packs.

Its going in my carry on. These pills are vital.(but not for the part of me getting prego. Im 14 and a virgin)

Answer 1

If they go thru your luggage and find it they most likely wont say anything. you dont have to declare it.

Answer 2

With all travels, you should ask your doctor to write a declaration, he will write their name, that they are medicines, that you need them, and the chemical name.
Keep the declaration with the medicines in your carry on, and if you pack part of the pills in your check in luggage, put a copy of the declaration with them.

And if possible, take a new prescription with you too, so you can go to a pharmacy and get new ones if something happens to these. (Like your bag getting stolen or so.)
Tell your doctor where you go, and he will write you a prescription for emergency use.

Always keep medicines in the original box, with the name and your name on it, (sticker from your pharmacy.)

Enjoy your trip, and I hope that the pill does do the job, you'll have a better life that way.

Answer 3

never declared any medications on domestic or international travels. I also keep some back at home in case something was lost by the airlines!

I keep my bc pills in my purse and they go through security just fine.

Answer 4

nothing will happen you are aloud to take medications with you. they are just looking for anything that has liquid in them but if you want to play it safe just make sure its coming from a pharmacy and has a label with your name and Dr.name.

Answer 5

You can take medication with no problem. see website below for complete info on what you can and cannot take.
