A question no-one can answer. May depend on the customs official.
Zip-lock bags to me do not look very official/pharmaceutical quality. But have seen on TV that illegal drug dealers use them.

Also prescription medication from one country may be illegal in another country.
Over the counter medication from one country may be prescription only in another country.
