I would suggest that you keep your pills with you in your carry on luggage. You wouldn't want to lose them if something happened to your checked luggage. Just remember that the pills that are in your carry on must be in the original packaging and that the name on the prescription must match the name on your boarding pass.

I ALWAYS keep my prescription meds with me! I've had a kidney transplant, so my life depends on my medications. Be sure you keep your meds in their original container that is clearly marked with your name and the prescription name. Otherwise, the airport security can confiscate unknown drugs. Also, many medications should not be exposed to extremes of temperature, which is what happens when your luggage is in the plane's cargo compartment, or if you leave them in the car to get all hot or cold. It can make them not work right anymore. Have a good trip!

Keep it with in case they lose your luggage. It's not like it takes up much space.

This website should answer all your questions about flying. There's even a section for medication. Check it out.

Keep it with you. If the airline loses your luggage, you will still be protected. Make sure you have the perscription information with you though.

Keep it with you. Never separate yourself from your Rx's. If you have the Rx insert that has your name on it or the blister pack that it comes in, bring that, so the TSA knows its an RX and not happy pills.

ALWAYS keep your prescriptions in your carry-on. This is only common sense in case your luggage gets misplaced.

Keep it with you b/c it will be too hard to replace it on vacation.

Keep them with you... there is no restiction on carring medication pills.. just keep your prescription with you too in case they ask for it.

KEEP IT. they are just pills and you may lose your luggage but if it's with you then you are all set :)

Keep them with you ....in your carry-on bag...

Sunshine

keep it with you. All the things that can fit in a carry-on bag then you should put it in.

Depends on what you are going to do in the airport.
(Kidding aside, I would pack it.)
