Yes, it is allowed, as it is a completely common practice, since there are no restrictions on carrying medicines in the cabin of an aircraft to/from Nepal. But to avoid questions, you need to follow a few simple but strict requirements.

The customs service of Nepal and other countries monitors the import of medicines, and here is what is important to remember so that your baggage and hand luggage do not provoke unnecessary suspicion:

  • Medications for personal use. It is allowed to carry a volume sufficient for the duration of the trip.
  • Keep in original packaging. This is a key requirement. Blisters, jars, and instructions must be factory-made. Loose tablets in a bag will lead to immediate questions.
  • A doctor's prescription is your main document. If the medicine is prescription, especially potent, psychotropic, or hormonal, 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 confirm 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: transporting liquid substances in containers over 100 milliliters in hand luggage is not allowed, which also includes cream-like products, ointments, toothpaste, and similar items. If your medications include such, they need to be placed in checked baggage.

And finally, observe moderation with the size and weight of the medications to avoid accidentally exceeding the permitted carry-on limits for your ticket. Most often, it is allowed to carry items in hand luggage with a total weight of no more than 7 kilograms, but this rule may vary among individual airlines and specific fares, so check it according to your ticket before the trip.
