Can I take medicien through security at Heathrow?

[mckenzie]

DD is currently on some medicine that she needs to have every 4 hours (for infected excema). We are flying to Florida so from start to finish she'll need about 3 doses in that period so I need to have it in my hand luggage. But will they let me?

TIA

Yes, no problem. Make sure it is in the original packaging with the pharmacy label, and take it out of your hand luggage before x ray and declare it.

If it's prescription medication with her name on it, then there shouldn't be a problem.

I realised afterwards that off course it is within the size allowed!!! Sorry for being daft but thanks very much for the replies.
