Is it allowed to carry medicinal drugs in the cabin of an airplane to or from Cyprus?

Yes, it is allowed, this is absolutely normal practice, as there are no restrictions on transporting medications in the cabin of an airplane to/from Cyprus. But to avoid questions, you need to follow a few clear but mandatory rules.

Customs services in Cyprus and other countries monitor the import of medications, and here is what you should consider so that your checked baggage and hand luggage do not provoke unnecessary suspicions:

• Medications for yourself. You can carry a reasonable amount for the duration of your stay.
• Keep them in their original packaging. This is the main condition. Blister packs, containers, and usage instructions should be branded. Loose tablets in a bag will immediately raise suspicion.
• A doctor's prescription is your main document. If the medication requires a prescription, especially those with strong effects, affecting the psyche, or containing hormones, be sure to have a prescription or a doctor's note with you, stamped. It is better if it is translated into English. This will prove that the medications are prescribed for your personal use and not for sale.

Also, do not forget the main restriction for carrying in hand luggage: you cannot carry liquids in containers larger than 100 ml in hand luggage, this also includes creams, ointments, toothpaste, etc. If you have such medications, they need to be placed in checked baggage.

And finally, be moderate with the quantity and weight of medications to avoid accidentally exceeding the allowable limits for hand luggage according to your airline ticket. Typically, you are allowed to carry items in hand luggage with a total weight of no more than 7 kilograms, but this norm may vary among different airlines and tariff plans, so check this issue with your airline ticket before the flight.
