you don't have to throw away the bottles, just pack them. of course for people who had already checked their bags and found out about this as they were boarding that was a little hard, but now everyone should know. You don't have toss everything you can't carry on board, just put it in your checked luggage. But if you have loose pills what will keep them from becoming unsterile yes and what if you are delayed so you need more doses. Maybe I should take a boat and just spend the whole trip getting there. Then of course I won't have enough time to get back, but I can worry about that later.
