Backprop,I think the whole "get a prescription and you'll be fine" or "just carry enough for your trip" is specious. Granted, she's not still in jail over this. But none of the above strategies will prevent a traveler from getting shaken down for what is actually a bona fide legal violation. I've traveled to Mexico with Sudafed in my carry-on plenty of times without incident, but I don't presume to tell someone they're immune from such a shakedown if they simply follow my strategy.
It said right in the original post story that Carvers relatives were told to get a doctor's prescription or letter.
A prescription and leaving in the original packaging has gotten me through USA tsa umpteen times, and customs in Moscow, Singapore, Hong Kong , Denpasar Bali, Manado,Sorong R4, Fiji, New Guinea,Australia, Maldives, Dubai,Paris, Athens, and quite a few more. It works. No arguing with results.
