I have some meds that I would like to bring, xanax, vicoden, ambient...etc. They are prescription. Do I need anything special from the doctors here? Will it be ok to bring these things? Or will I get tossed in jail at the airport?

Whoa thats quite an arsenal! how can you ride a horse w/xanx balance, vicodin numbed back, and ambien snooze??? I'm just joking around, pls dont take it wrong.

Seriously tho, keep the Rx w/them but I doubt very seriously they will even notice that you have pills at all

And, of course, bring the M.D.'s prescriptions in your name and have the bottles labeled. But that's just a precaution, I've never had anything looked at/questioned. I just don't know if Xanax and vicodin is available in Qatar. They tend to have less of a pharmacopaiea.

Hi Niki. You want to be sure these meds are available in Qatar if you need your prescriptions renewed. I'm not sure that Ambien is carried here.

hey. if these meds you mentioned are prescriptions just bring them with u cos if you want to get anything from the pharmacy here you should go to doctors first so that they prescribe u these kind of meds and antibiotics too. so get them with u along with ur doctors proof just in case u faced any kind of problem at the airport.

best of luck. c ya in doha. ciao
