Tell me, please, in the UAE. How is it with the transportation of a personal first aid kit?
UAE
Is it true that certain medicines are prohibited from being imported there and that personal medicines must be declared?
I always carry a lot of medicines with me - enzymes (I can’t do without them, especially in a foreign country), for headaches, fever, antihistamines, sorbents ... and then my husband read a lot about what needs to be declared, many are prohibited ... someone does he know anything about it?

I also went with a bunch of medicines, just in case - for reinsurance. did not declare, there is no special inspection. but I didn’t collect the first-aid kit, but in different places of the suitcase on the plate, without packaging

My relative went, 66 years old. I took heart medication, pressure medication, asthma spray in my hand luggage, and a rather large cosmetic bag with medicines in my luggage. There were no problems.

I, due to my retirement age, always carry a "half-suitcase" of medicines. Was in the Emirates, never had any questions.
аватар ira707

In the Emirates, I was in Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi - I brought medicines everywhere without any problems.

On another forum, they sent me a link that the rules for transporting drugs have changed, but as I understand it, antidepressants, codeine ...

I hope our tempalgin, paracetamol and tsiramon do not need to be declared ....

In October, Sharjah Airport, no one was interested in my hand luggage
аватар ira707
I don’t carry a first aid kit in hand luggage, hand luggage should be too big))

I have medicines of 14 items that are quietly reduced into a large cosmetic bag.

At one time I downloaded their banned list - in English, really. I can send if you want.

as a resident of the emirates, I will say that searches are carried out, but selectively. more often with dogs before baggage claim.
And in addition to medicines, there are also prohibited products.
citramon, paracetamol - take it easy.
if there are medicines containing narcotic and sedative components, do not import them. if it is vital - register online. containing codeine is not allowed. analgesics check for the presence of such things.
barboval carvalol - it is impossible.
all at your own peril and risk. it was a couple of years ago in Sharjah an aunt was imprisoned for bubbling. Hindu - for poppy.

Anetka-gan Thank you! I'm more concerned about enzymes (for digestion) - no taboos? Maybe you know?
аватар Anetka-gan
I don't quite understand what it is. There is a general list of prohibited components. if the composition of your medicines is "clean" and there are no prohibitions - take it calmly. the main thing if you suddenly ask - to explain what it is and why.

Anetka-gan Didn't seem to see it on the list). Enzymes are something like mezim and festal, only doses of enzymes are larger. Poideas have never been considered with a narcotic composition ... but who knows)
аватар Anetka-gan
did you check the components? keep the instructions with you. ideally, if all the components are written in Latin
