Traveling to the U.S. and taking finasteride

Hi, I'm going for a week to the U.S. (from Europe) for a holiday, but I wondered if I can just put some finasteride/proscar into my suitcase or will I get into trouble because of that?
I mean I could just as easily be having xtc instead of proscar there right?

Missing my connecting flight because of something like that is not worth having a week of proscar to me, so I would like to get some advice ;).

Just take them out of the blister pack and put in a old 35mm film canister and your fine. Of course, just bring the amount of Proscar that you will need for the number of days of your trip.
Customs aren´t that much trouble.

Just make sure you pack it in your suit case and not in your hand luggage you can bring on the plane. Because that gets x-rayed and could be opened up and you could be questioned as a result. And you will have to tell everyone what it is and what its for, not worth the embarrassment if you ask me :$

Hmm could I smuggle xtc the same way? :p. I will probably put them in my suitcase then, I don't really care that much since I still have a full head of hair (at least anyone not as much a whiner as myself would say so). So telling customs it's to preserve my hair doesn't sound like such a terrible thing.

But I won't have any problems if I put it in my suitcase?

Im pretty sure the dont x-tay the suitcases, they use dogs on them to sniff out chemicals for explosives or drugs when they are on the treadmill out the back of the airport when your boarding and they are almost impossible to beat. They are not trainned to sniff out out finasteride, but they are trainned to sniff out xtc. So yeah i dont think that would work :devil:

That's right, put it on the luggage that you check in. Not the one you bring onboard. And when you go through customs DON'T declare that you're bringing it into the country.

Exactly.

Just put it in a side pocket of your suitcase.
