Hi all,
We are heading to Dubai in October.
I'm on Setraline and occasionally taking co-codamol for back pain/period troubles.
Will I have any problems taking them meds w me?
Thank you for your help.

My DF takes a range of medications most of which are restricted in other countries. He always takes enough for his trip plus an extra weeks worth in case of delays etc. He takes his latest prescription to show all the medication has been prescribed and keeps it all together to show security rather than them finding it for themselves he has never had a problem.

Check with the official website.
Take no info from randoms on internet.
This is stuff you have to get right.

I’d also print off the guidance if you so take with you.

Co-codamol is technically not allowed as it's an opiate. I managed to get some in disguised as ibuprofen but I'd recommend taking officially advice and medical advice on legal alternatives.
