Yes, you can, this is absolutely normal practice, as there are no established prohibitions on carrying medicines in hand luggage to/from Israel. But to avoid difficulties, you need to follow a few clear but mandatory rules.
The customs service of Israel and other countries controls the import of medicines into the territory, and here is what is important to remember so that your items in the baggage compartment and on your person do not provoke unnecessary suspicions:
- Medicines for yourself. You can carry the necessary amount for the duration of your trip.
- Keep in original packaging. This is the main condition. Blister packs, bottles, and package inserts should be branded. Loose medications in a bag will immediately raise suspicions.
- A doctor's prescription is your main document. If the medication requires a prescription, especially with strong effects, psychotropic or hormonal, be sure to bring a prescription or a doctor's note with a seal. Preferably, the document should be in English. This will confirm that the drugs are intended for your own needs, not for sale.
Also, do not forget the main restriction for carrying in hand luggage: it is prohibited to carry liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 100 ml in hand luggage, this category includes cream-like products, ointments, toothpaste, and similar items. If among your medicines there are such, they need to be placed in checked baggage.
And finally, observe moderation with the quantity and weight of medicines, so as not to unintentionally exceed the permitted limits for carriage in the cabin according to your ticket. As a rule, it is allowed to carry baggage in the aircraft cabin with a total weight of no more than 7 kilograms, but this norm may differ among various carriers and for different tariffs, so check it according to your flight ticket before the trip.
