You should post in General Europe category. I think you meant meds and vitamins not mess and vitamins. I think meds and vitamins should be separated and clearly labeled so you don't have any problems going
through security.

There are multiple threads about this general topic. There is also conflicting advice. I've traveled extensively (US and Europe and one around the world trip) for more than 20 years. I've NEVER had a problem with my medications, and vitamins/supplements, NO MATTER HOW I CARRIED THEM. TSA does not care! And I've never had any foregin official ask (and we used to do 2 or more international trips a year). I DO make sure I have the full generic and brand name of the prescriptions with me in case I have a medical problem while traveling. Carry them in the most convient way for you.

I don't usually carry prescription meds but I do carry a variety of supplements and such. I just put them all in a single baggie or in a daily pill container. Like Toni, I have NEVER had anyone show any interest in them at all, even in places like China or Costa Rica. Security is looking for contraband that is not allowed on a flight. They don't carry about your vitamins.
