If you can find the old bottle I'm sure that will work. And if worse comes to worse and they do take it, you can always go buy some replacement meds at one of the tons of pharmacies they have down there as long as it isn't one of the very few that do require a prescription. Chances are it won't come to that but if it does take a trip to the pharmacies downtown. They are MUCH MUCH cheaper than the ones in the hotel zone.
while we're on the topic...what sorts of meds can i buy down there without a prescription. For instance can i go get some vicodin without a prescription?
I don't believe you can buy vicodin without a prescription. For the most part you can buy any non-narcotic without a prescription. But rememeber, there are Customs laws on what you can bring back into the States. Typically, you can bring a 90 day supply of a medicine for yourself. If you come back and they find lots of various meds in quantities over a 90 supply they can seize it and give you a very hard time.
for what its worth. i got the dreaded red light last year... she didnt do that complete of a search (not like i had anything with me anyway). not sure if she was just in a good mood or i was just lucky
Read this on cafecancun: "Antibiotics are available without prescription. Narcotics are not dispensed by pharmacies in Cancun even with a prescription. They are available only for in-patients in authorized hospitals."
Yeah i think I remember them saying they need to be in the bottles, and they have to prescribed to the person carrying them as well.. :lol:
