Sparker7 35 Posted October 21, 2017 I'll be taking pre-filled injections of blood thinners with me to Mexico. My hematologist prescribed them for me for this procedure because I'm allergic to lovenox and the injections I can take are rarely used and not widely available. Does anyone know if I'll need any sort of documentation to bring them with me? They'll of course have my name and info on them from the pharmacy, so I didn't think I'd need anything else. A friend of mine thinks I'll need a letter from my hematologist, but that seems excessive to me. I have a history of blood clots, so it's vital that I be allowed to take this medication with me. I thought I'd check here to see if anyone else has experience and advice regarding this situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FluffyChix 17,415 Posted October 21, 2017 I'd err on the side of caution. Get the letter from the doc... 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
