What the fuck is with the downvotes? In New York State it is illegal to transport prescription meds in anything but the properly labeled container from the pharmacy.
As it rightfully should be most meds can be extremely dangerous if taken wrong. One of my meds if a healthy person would take it would kill them in a (literal) heartbeat!
If someone other than me were to take some of my meds, one will knock you out for several hours and wake up feeling dizzy. The other could make you feel "disconnected", and hella dizzy, so yes, people, carrying your pills in their respective bottles is how it's supposed to be. Even if you have to carry, like, 3 of those suckers who make noises every time you walk. It's a pain, but saving space is not worth the risk when some of your pills are really "dangerous" to others.
Two of mine are heart meds one is a nasty pain med from a leg issue and the other is meant to keep my asthma in check, crazy for somebody who isn't even 30! Any of which could kill somebody if they took them wrong especially the cardiac or asthma.
I have several bottles, however I always carry at least 3 at all times. One for migraines, one for pain, and one for anxiety. I don't like any of them because they numb me for a a bit (or a lot), but it could be a lot worse if something happens and I don't have them. Especially the anxiety one (I can live with the migraine for a bit, and I also carry some naproxen with me if I really need to take something for the pain but cannot afford the numbness that comes with it)
I can't say I disagree with the logic of the law behind proper identification and transportation of medicine...
But if you are popping a random stranger's pills... you deserve the adverse side affects you suffer.
It is actually so law enforcement personnel can identify what pills you're carrying. My wife was hassled by cops when she left one of these on her passenger seat full of her meds during cancer treatment.
