I'm travelling to Dubai soon. I keep reading conflicting info re what I can and can't take through Dubai in terms of medications - and some horror stories too! I take Omeprazole, Fluticasone nasal spray, HRT and Tramadol. I just wondered if anyone knew if these would all be ok with a doctor's letter? I am aware that the Tramadol is classed as a semi controlled drug (though not as bad as codeine) but just can't seem to get any definitive info on this subject? Ive even read that sometimes a copy of doctor's script/letter is not necessarily foolproof! Aaaargh! P.s I've also posted this in travel but know how the guys in Body and Soul can be really helpful! I'm starting to feel scared about the whole thing!!!!
I think you need to get a letter from your Dr as well as a copy of your script to be on the safe side. Here is a list as far as I can tell of problem prescription meds:)
