Travelling with prescribed medicines
Please be advised that some medicines that are prescribed or that can be bought over the counter in the UK, maybe prohibited in some countries. This is common with controlled drugs such as codeine, morphine, Ritalin, and other substances such as cannabinoids, opioids, stimulants, depressants, and anabolic steroids.

CBD
CBD is an abbreviation for “cannabidiol”, which is one of the active compounds found in cannabis plants. You've probably heard about it by now, as the medical benefits are widely publicised by both users and advocates. Many people use over-the-counter CBD in gummies, lotions, oils, and other forms. It is said to help with chronic pain, anxiety, insomnia, and a variety of other ailments.
Most major cruise lines prohibit all forms of marijuana including CBD oil.
