If I have a 24-ct box of generic pseudoephedrine, original packaging, in my toiletry kid and am red-lighted, is it the conventional wisdom that the worst thing that can happen is that it gets confiscated?

Thank you.
I've been taking loratadine with pseudoephedrine (Claritin-D) to Cozumel for years; never a problem, in the original packaging and reasonable quantities for daily use. 100 grams, I'd not do this.
