You can travel with your medication in both carry on and checked baggage, but it's recommended that you pack your essential medications in your carry on baggage.

Prescription medications, medical supplies, and essentials like breast milk and infant formula are not subject to the same strict liquid rules as other liquids like shampoo or sunscreen would be.

Traveling with medical marijuana in the USA on a domestic flight can also be complicated due to differing state and federal laws.

Medical marijuana remains illegal under federal law except for products that contain no more than3% THC.

Pills and powders that are over 12 ounces or 350 milliliters must go in a separate bin for X-ray screening.

Before travel, it's also a good idea to check online to see if your prescription is available in your destination country.

Some common US prescriptions, like the birth control pill, can be difficult or even impossible to get while abroad.

TSA Cares is a helpline that provides travelers with disabilities and medical conditions assistance through the security screening process.
