Prescription meds

We're travelling to the Netherlands tomorrow, and my back has flared up badly. I need to take my meds with me, but have no paper prescription to prove I need them. Obviously the boxes have the dispensing labels on them. Will they be acceptable? I need to take Diazepam, Naproxen and Omeprazole.

I always carry meds in my hand luggage. I don't think you need your prescription unless you are taking syringes in which case you would need a doctor's letter.

Heck! Diazepam is on List 2 of the Opium Act. The others aren't listed.

What would happen if I brought a packet in? Would it just be a matter of confiscation, or would I be in real trouble?
