No problem bringing in medication.  Best to leave it in the prescripton bottle however.  Hope that helps!

That's a good idea, although I've heard as long as you have the prescription bottle and you say you're a tourist, they'll refill for you at most local pharmacies and/or some doctor's offices.

Thanks a lot i may go that rout rather than have to keep up with all that medication then i will know what it will cost me there.

You will find most of the meds cheaper here than the states. Central drugs in Belize city or Brodies can bring in anything you can`t find at your local drug store.
