I know that all prescriptions brought into Spain need be in their pharmacy vial, however I do not know the requirements for bringing my vitamins. Could someone please advise me whether I can simply pack them in plastic bag or if need be in their original container bought at store. Thank you.

No, you can pack them how you wish. All pills are pretty much identifiable, if they were to look they can see the Vitamins are not an issue.

I've never used bottles for prescriptions or vitamins. I have 8 chronic conditions so a lot of prescriptions and all those bottles would never work for me. I been to Europe over 20 times and to Spain 4 of those times, as recently as last October. I use a blow dryer to heat the label off the bottles and stick it to a sandwich baggie and all those small baggies go into a one-gallon baggie. It should be noted that all countries use bottles, too much to recycle. Enjoy your trip J

No need to work at removing the labels. Your pharmacy can reprint them for you to put on or in small plastic bags.
