OTC meds in carry-on?

[luvdisney00]

I usually take a bunch of different OTC meds "just in case" pills not liquid like tylenol, pepto, cold meds etc. If I take them in my carry-on do they have to be in their labled containers, or can I take a few of each in a different container? I usually carry , in my purse a small tupperware pill box with 2 tylenol, 2 advil, 2 excederine and I'd like to take it to the parks. I can't remember if this is OK or not.
TIA! I haven't flown in 3 years and for some reason this year I'm nervous about packing correctly.

I look like a medicine chest traveling. Chronic pain scripts, OTC needs, and never had any issue going through the security. They never looked at the names, meds or anything.

You can always check TSA.gov to answer these types of questions. That said, you will have no problem with these meds in your carry-on when traveling in the US.

If its a liquid medication, just be sure to run it separately from your bag and you shouldn't have any issues.

Last time I went to WDW with my sisters family she had a back pack as a carry on that was full of things like liquid child's Tylenol, Zyrtec, epi pen, 2 rescue inhalers, asthma meds and a nebulizer. When she got to security she told them right away what was in the backpack and had no problems. Security looked through everything carefully especially the nebulizer.

You'll have no problem with pills in "unlabled" containers.
They are of no legitimate concern to TSA--
