Bringing medicine back to the USA from Nuevo Progreso, MX

yes. Ironically, the greater danger is taking antibiotics when you shouldn't be.

We have never had a problem, just no narcotics without a RX. Also Cipro used to be banned, not sure if it still is?

Must be easy to do - When we was working in the Phoenix AZ area a co-worker made many trips to Mexico border town with a list of pills everyone wanted him to pick up for them...

That doesn't sit well with customs at Los Algodones. If I declare estrogen pills they always say you aren't supposed to get meds for someone else. They've never actually done anything about it.

Just tell 'em the Estrogen's for you, 2oldman- that'll shut 'em up! :B

I just say for personnel use only and no narcotics.

Sounds like the best response.

Last week we came back from NP with Zpaks, customs asked if we had meds. We said yes Z paks he looked in the bag and said OK and handed the bag back.

A few years back I picked up a few items and crossed at Del Rio. When the customs agent asked if I had anything to declare I told him " I just went for drugs. " He just asked if they were across the counter, "yeah they handed them across the counter to me".

No problems, he waved me on.
