Geltabs
 

With the new security procedures, is it okay to have non prescription gel tablets in your carry on? What about liquid tylenol? Do these items have to be placed in a separate bag?

The rule is that you can carry 3 oz of liquids per container. These containers have to fit in 1 one quart plastic resealable baggie. To be on the safe side, put the gel tabs in the baggie. Do not take the large tylenol and it needs to go in the baggie too.

if asked.. just tell em its clear solid!
not a gel.

Option 2: Put liquid tylenol in pocket.

Mike

past weekend I had 100 geltabs.. in my bag. (not in the freedom bag)
nobody questioned it.

hope you have the same luck.

No that is not the "rule" The rule is there is no limit for medications on the amount of the liquid. The rules state that you can bring more if you declare it and are subject to additional screening.

...unless TSA Marcus Welby, MD, makes a medical judgment that you don't need these medications and confiscates them.

Absolutely, or that the screener doesn't know the rules in the first place. See above.

:confused: :confused: :confused:
Make sure that it is still in the bottle and close the lid tight :)

Okay dude, what ever you say! I have only been doing this for four years and I am bestowed with the authority to decide what can go or not. There are the rules, and those that are posted are really simple ones. There is practical application that is used everyday and the rules go out the window. You failed to mention anything about a doctors note or prescription. If you want to take the large tylenol go right ahead, but sooner or later without a doctors note, it is going to end up in the trash.

Sustained.

Over ruled. You have continuing medical education not a J.D.

With reference to the sentence I bolded above: :confused:

Further, one of your colleagues who is at a different airport says that a doctor's note is not acceptable because anyone can forge such a thing...so which is it?

You said:

"The rule is that you can carry 3 oz of liquids per container. These containers have to fit in 1 one quart plastic resealable baggie. To be on the safe side, put the gel tabs in the baggie. Do not take the large tylenol and it needs to go in the baggie too."

You were obviously wrong. It doesn't take any education to figure that one out.

Ah now see was that soooo hard to point out? I made a boo boo. Instead you guys have to heap all the crap on me about education and stuff like that. I can accept my mistakes and that was an honest one.
