Is it acceptable to bring over Nyquil or similar cold/ flu medicines containing alcohol? Do you just remove the label, or is it verboten/potential for deportation?
Thanks,
CP

Anything containing alcohol is illegal and bringing it in can have serious consequences. I would recommend against this completely - even if it not labelled. It is could result in a denied entry - or worse.

I agree. If you need medications for colds and flu, you can find those readily at the pharmacies here, although I do wish they carried a larger selection, especially for children.

Thanks to you both. I had seen the earlier post on mouthwash, which seemed to imply that alcohol-based mouthwash was sometimes available. That, combined with my current cold, led to my question. Should I find myself traveling to the KSA (insh), I shall follow your sage advice and leave the "good stuff" here.
Thanks,
CP
