Due to having to adjust to a different time of day, problems can arise in the regular taking of medications. If you must take a medication at regular intervals, we recommend that you consult a doctor before a flight across several time zones.
Medications packaging should be proof against knocks and shocks and the medications you need should if possible be spread around several carry-on luggage items. It's advisable to take in your carry-on luggage about one-and-a-half to twice the amount you expect to need. In exceptional cases flights can be diverted or their departure is delayed for a long time - even if you are already sitting in the aircraft.
If you have medications and injection needles in your carry-on luggage, it's advisable to have a doctor's certificate with you which confirms that it is medical material for personal needs.
