Can I take medication abroad?

해외에 약을 갖고 나갈수 있을까요?

 

Cases where you bring over-the-counter medication when traveling abroad with children

There are many. I've never caught it before.

When going on a long business trip or a long journey

It can take a month to three months or even longer.

It might get caught at the airport security checkpoint.

It seems that a prescription was definitely required after about three months.

 

In Korea, packaged medicines contain multiple drugs in a single bag.

They are mixed together, so they actually don't know what medication it is.

It could be mistaken for illegal drugs or unapproved medication.

They say you must always carry an English prescription.

It's safer to carry it as it is.

 

You can get the English prescription at the hospital after receiving treatment.

Things to know when staying abroad for a long period

It seems like common sense, so I thought I would share it~
