Fortunately until now I have never needed to travel with medication. Do airport security/border control agents require me to produce any kind of documentation proving that the drugs are required by me? I don’t imagine that they are controlled substances since my current country of residence (Japan) is ultra conservative about meds.
If so, what form should this proof take? The doctor’s prescription is a) in Japanese b) passed to the dispensing chemist and I don’t think we can get a copy of it.
My case this would be
Loxoprofen 180mg/day
Rebamipide 300mg/day
Nexium 20 20mg/day
Xarelto 15mg/day
Metformin 750mg/day
Insulin 6 units/day
For about 2 months.
I would like to fly direct to the UK but it is possible that there will be a stopover in Frankfurt. Haven’t booked the flights yet.
cheers!
