How do you privately travel with enemas? Flights? Ugh

The way I figure it, most people aren't going to know what they are (I'd never seen an enema bottle until I used my first mesalamine enema) and/or are far too busy getting their own crap situated to go through security to pay any attention to what's in your bins. As far as TSA agents, I've never had my baggie of enemas inspected separately and I really don't give a rat's ass if they think less of me because I have enemas with me. I figure they've seen plenty of stuff more interesting than enema bottles, too.

I'm not sure I'd send them ahead via mail, because you don't know if they will be handled properly.

Yeah, I can see how your daughter would just DIE (in her opinion!) if that were to happen. I really wouldn't worry about the TSA agents. I've probably flown 10 times with enemas and it's been a complete non-issue. I do, however, always cut the prescription label off the box and stick it in the baggie, just to show it is indeed a prescription medication in case there is a problem. But not one TSA agent has ever looked at it.

I am only going for one weekend and only need to bring one bottle, so I am just going to put it in with the rest of my stuff. Pills and creams, what ever.

I haven't flown in awhile, so I guess I just put everything in a ziplock and then put it in a bin as we go thru security and then put it back into my suitcase or carry on when we are done?

Thanks everybody. Glad to see everyone doing okay. I am still taking mesalmine and balzalaside every day. Enema every other day or so.

You only get a quart-sized baggie, so depending on how much stuff you have, the enema bottle might not fit. Medications are NOT subject to that 1 quart limit, so that's why I always put my enemas in a separate baggie. Plus, if it leaks, I really don't want it to get all over my other stuff, since it stains.

But yeah, when you get up to the checkpoint, you pull your baggie of liquids out and place it in the bin for screening and put it away once you're through to the other side. You also have to remove your shoes and coat/jacket, if you're wearing one. Most watches and rings are small enough they don't have to be removed. If you have change or a cell phone in your pocket, those have to come out, too. And laptops have to go in a bin, too, if you have one.

Also, the liquids have to be in a 3 oz size bottle or less, but medications are also not subject to that limit.

I flew internationally in August and I took a sealed box of 7 enemas with a pharmacy label on the box. It was never opened by any security agents and I was never asked any questions. Sure it said what it was on the box, but I didn't really care.
