These days I xerox a prescription before filling it then staple a copy in my International Vaccination yellow card. That way I always have it with me. The real pain is when I get a 30 or 90 day supply of something that are large pills or several a day, and it comes in a quart size bottle. Three of those won't fit in my carry on. I got some tiny orange pill bottles from my pharmacy and then remove labels from the big bottles and put them on the travel size bottles.

It is hard to remove vitamin labels. I take my vitamin bottles and lay them on a copy machine and copy the fronts. At least I have descriptions of what each pill is if ever I need to explain what each and every pill in my possession is. Knock wood, never had to, especially in a place like SIN.

Don't forget the silly Water and Gel Ban. Instead of being safely packed with my vitamins, I now have to pack my food supplement gelcaps in my Freedom Baggie. At least I have the satisfaction of knowing that if a TSA screener ever roughly inspects my baggie they may spend the rest of their shift smelling like cod liver oil.

Also: reinspect your first aid kit for contraband. When the Gel Ban started, I had to go through my little travel first aid kit and remove some gel cap form OTC meds and go buy some solid pill form versions of the same thing. Luckily several items that used to only come in gel form now come in solid tablets. Can I send the bill to Kip for the extra needness expense he caused me?
