The bottle of Viagra that Rush Limbaugh carried into this country last week landed the radio star in legal limbo and late night comedians' punch lines. It also points out how any drugs -- even the most common -- can become prescriptions for trouble when traveling.
One-third of the 2,500 Americans arrested overseas each year are held on drug-related charges, according to the U.S. State Department. Not following the letter of the law also can be a problem coming home.
Limbaugh was detained and his drugs seized as he came through Palm Beach International Airport on June 26 for having a prescription in his doctor's name. The State's Attorney Office in Palm Beach is still investigating.
Travelers should check the laws of each country before they check in their luggage. Something as innocuous as putting pills into a dispenser with compartments marked with the days of the week -- rather than the original container -- can alert customs officials.
"That would be ever so much easier to carry," said Karen Hale, 65, of Ormond by-the-Sea, about those seven-days-in-one dispensers. She attributed problem-free travels to China, Thailand, Turkey, South Africa, Kenya, Ireland, England, Belgium, Holland, Italy, Switzerland and the Amazon Basin to her prescription-stashing approach.
"I'm always very careful to keep them in the container they came in," she said.
Travelers going someplace exotic, be warned. Chewing gum and chewing tobacco, for example, are not allowed into Singapore, according to that government's Web site. Japanese customs officials will get riled up at those coming into the country with stimulants found in sinus medications such as Sudafed and Vicks inhalers. And morphine, codeine and benzodiazepines -- not uncommon prescriptions in the United States -- are not allowed into France, according to the French embassy.
For a smooth return, U.S. Customs and Border Protection has these general recommendations:
· Carry only the quantity of substance that a person with the condition (such as chronic pain) would normally carry for personal use.
· Carry a prescription or written statement from your physician that the substances are being used under a doctor's supervision.
· Medicines brought into the United States without a U.S. doctor's prescription -- to take advantage of lower drug prices outside this country -- are limited to personal use and 50 dosage units.
· Only medications legal in the United States can be brought into the country for personal use.
Zachary Mann, a special agent for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said 25,000 people arrive in Miami from foreign destinations every day -- making it the third busiest in the country. Drug seizures are not uncommon there, Mann said.
If you are traveling with someone else's drugs in your possession, you'd better have a story, Mann said.
"If it's a husband and wife or family situation, it wouldn't be an issue unless it's an excessive quantity," Mann said, addressing the question of the name on the prescription.
Pam Harvey, a Daytona Beach Shores retiree who just returned from Tuscany, Italy, said she and her husband have had more trouble with wine importation than drug issues.
"My wine just arrived after being impounded by customs," she said.
Randy Margrave, a pharmacist at Holly Hill Pharmacy, said he thinks Limbaugh's prescription troubles are a result of the political shock-jock's high profile. He said the U.S. laws on drug importation can be open to interpretation.
"What's a 90-day supply of Viagra?" Margrave joked, referring to one way of describing how many medications people are allowed to bring into the country without a prescription. "For Rush Limbaugh, that could be one pill."

Management of Diabetes During Intercontinental Travel Edward Benson, M.D.
Donna Hamilton, R.N., C.D.E. Section of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Virginia Mason Medical Center
Overseas travel poses special problems for people with diabetes. They need to know how to adapt their treatment programs to unfamiliar foods, irregular schedules, and unaccustomed exercise. Insulin injections and mealtimes must be adjusted to accommodate crossing multiple time zones. People with diabetes should also know how to obtain medical care in unfamiliar surroundings.
This article presents updated information on management of diabetes during travel. The traveler with diabetes can now measure blood glucose levels directly and accurately, thereby reducing the risk of hypoglycemia or ketoacidosis.
By taking certain precautions, patients with diabetes can travel safely on extended trips across multiple time zones.
What to Take The overseas traveler should carry sufficient insulin to last the entire trip (Table 1). The reason for carrying a full supply (and some extra just to be safe) is that insulin purchased overseas may have a different potency and species of origin than the person’s usual insulin. Contrary to common belief, insulin need not be refrigerated. It retains full potency for months or even years at room temperature. Insulin should be distributed between carry-on and checked baggage, in case one or the other component of the luggage goes astray.
At least one bottle of Regular insulin should be included, even if it is not a usual part of the daily insulin dose. Regular insulin may be necessary to maintain control of diabetes during illnesses such as the flu.
The traveler should also carry U-100 syringes in a quantity sufficient to last the entire trip. While U-100 insulin and syringes are standard in the United States, many countries still use U-40 and U-80 syringes. Despite the widespread belief that foreign customs inspectors balk when confronted with insulin syringes, we have never heard of any person with a diabetes identification tag encountering difficulties.
Sugar cubes or other forms of easily carried sugar are essential supplies. A traveling companion or tour director should be given an ampule of glucagon (1mg glucagon with a separate 1 ml bottle of diluent) or glucagon emergency kit and taught how to mix and inject it should the person with diabetes be found stuporous or comatose.
The traveler with diabetes should also take a blood glucose monitor and a supply of blood glucose testing strips sufficient to last the trip. Reagent strips purchased overseas may give blood glucose readings in units different from those used in the United States.
TABLE 1: What to Take
Insulin sufficient to last entire trip
U-100 syringes to last entire trip
At least one bottle of Regular insulin
Blood glucose monitor, test strips and lancets
Ketone-detecting strips (for use during illness)
Sugar cubes or packets
Glucagon emergency kit or Glucagon ampule (1mg with 1ml diluent)
Snacks
Diabetes identification tag or bracelet
Billfold card detailing insulin dose and doctor’s name and telephone number
Adjustment of Insulin Dosage The management of diabetes is usually based on a 24-hour medication schedule. When traveling north or south, no adjustments in the 24-hour schedule are needed. However, east or west travel across time zones extends or abbreviates the day, depending on the direction of travel. When five or fewer time zones are crossed, no change is required in the usual insulin routine. When crossing six or more time zones, however, adjustment in the usual schedule is advisable.
The timing of oral diabetes medication is not as critical as that of insulin. People taking pills for their diabetes should simply take their medicines at the prescribed time using local time.
Frequent blood glucose monitoring is essential for safety. In addition to the typical measurements before breakfast and dinner, travelers should check blood glucose levels whenever their daily routine is disrupted. Even individuals normally lax about home glucose monitoring should test at least twice daily while traveling. When in doubt, measure. If the person feels even slightly ill, blood glucose should be measured.
Traveling East Across Six or More Time Zones One Dose Schedule
Individuals who normally take insulin once daily before breakfast should take the usual dose at the usual time on the day of departure (Table 2). Meals provided in-flight will usually suffice but supplemental snacks may be necessary if meals are delayed. Leaving the wristwatch unadjusted during flight so that it continues to correspond to the time at the point of departure will make it easier to judge whether there is an undue delay between meals.
The first morning at the destination, just before breakfast (local time), two-thirds of the usual morning dose of NPH or Lente (NPH/L) is taken since fewer than 24 hours will have elapsed since the pr
