I am leaving for Punta Cana on Aug 24th-Aug 31st. I am currently taking 3 (20mg), and 3 (40mg) of Oxycontin a day. I have the 20 mg and 40 mg Oxycontin in there own plastic prescription bottle. I take 60 mg's 3 times a day. Nothing is altered or changed and the bottle has all the information on it.
The question is: Will Customs give me any problems or trouble with this narcotic? I ask because Oxycontin has received a lot of publicity.
I called and left a message for my doctor to fax a letter at my work stating the reasons and legiticy of why I am taking this narcotic. But they did not fax anything. I called again this morning (I work nightshift), and left another message for them to fax it.
If I dont have this letter from my doctor, will I be ok. I know its a broad question to ask, but I have never been thru Customs before. I have severe low back pain, which is caused by several things....but everything is legit.
Thanks to all who can help me out. Scott
