Oh thank you! I'm relieved to know that I'm not some international drug smuggler!

The idea that customs would care about your immodium!

Agreed. Here are the rules- generally, as long as you bring a reasonable amount for only personal use, you are fine.

What?? You can bring pepto to France...no clue about that other supplement, but no one is going to check. It's not Russia where some CBD will land you in jail.

You can bring pepto to France, its just not sold in France. As a frequent traveler to Europe, I always carry ample OTC meds in case I get sick and no one has ever asked about them or stopped me. You'll be fine.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I only recently found out that you're not allowed to bring OTC (in the US) medications like pepto and imodium to Europe (whoops!)

I'm traveling to France soon and want to bring Azo cranberry supplement pills. Is this ok? Thank you.
