Can I take medicine (for immigrants) to the United States?

You can take medicine abroad, but there are requirements and restrictions.

The US Customs authorities published a detailed list of illegal drugs on its website. For example, narcotic psychotropic drugs such as heroin, cocaine, marijuana, sedatives, sleeping pills, stimulants, antidepressants and antiepileptic drugs, and some drugs that are easily abused by criminals such as flunitrazepam, γ -hydroxybutyric acid and fenfen (diet pills) are not allowed to be brought into the country. For example, domperidone is forbidden to be brought into the United States because it contains domperidone, while Baijiahei, Tylenol, Contek and so on. You can't carry them in large doses because they contain ephedrine. For safety reasons, it is best not to carry it.

In fact, many countries have strict regulations on drugs, and basically all countries are not allowed to carry products containing narcotic drugs, amphetamine, barbiturates, sedatives, growth hormones, protein synthesis, androgen steroids, erythropoietin (EPO) and other prohibited substances.

Ye, who is studying in California, said that in general, you can take some cold medicine or daily medication, but the dosage should not be too much. Moreover, it is best to put western medicine in the original bottle, with Chinese and English descriptions or descriptions of pharmaceutical ingredients. Prescription drugs also require a doctor's prescription.

According to the information published on the website of the US Customs and Border Protection, if passengers need to carry drugs containing addictive or narcotic ingredients, such as some cough medicines, sedatives, sleeping pills and antidepressants, they must declare to the customs, and at the same time, they must keep the drugs in the original packaging, show a doctor's prescription or certificate, and only carry a reasonable dose for personal use.

However, the definition and interpretation of "appropriate quantity" varies from country to country. For example, Australia stipulates that the dosage of no more than three months is appropriate, and other countries have no clear regulations. So the general principle is not to carry a lot. If you want to carry a certain dose, it must be a reasonable dose, and you need a doctor's prescription to prove its "rationality". As for doctors' prescriptions, remember to prepare Chinese and English prescriptions or Chinese and English instructions and declare them to the customs on your own initiative.
