As long as the Rx label is attached you can bring them.

There is no RX label on any of my boxes. All mine are samples. I just carry a prescription from the neuro when I fly. I'm getting ready to fly again here in about 2 weeks. If the Trex don't go - I don't go !! ::)

I flew from San Diego to Nashville 2 days after the new restrictions were put in place with a copy of the scrip that the Pharmisist had faxed to me with a note a note explaining the sevarity of my condition. Security let me through. All they did was swab and scan the pack for explosive contaminates. :P

I travelled with mine last week. Didn't have a scrip' with me, they didn't even have me pull them out. (That's either good or bad....)

i would have thought so matey . .

they wouldnt let a diabetic travel without insulin would they, so they are probly relatively used to seeing injection kits go through.

its obvious that its for medical use and like said above, if they swab it and scan it then your good to go [smiley=laugh.gif]
