If you’re going on an international flight find a way to bring the original bottle so customs doesn’t find an issue with it. For just airport security though you could maybe transfer them to a smaller bottle of some kind they almost certainly won’t dig through your bag to find them.

If you’re going to an airport that only uses metal detectors not those fancy body scanners you can just put them in your pocket.

I’m trying to work out if your hypothetical pill holder only has five days or you’re calling OP a motherfucker.

Nah nah nah the pill holder has 7 days for the week, Sunday- Saturday. Op only needs to load up m-f with 2 pills each to reasonably smuggle them through customs.

When I flew in May I put all of my pills in one bottle. I had my allergy meds, anti-diarrhea pills, and ibuprofen. Nothing was said about it going through security.

I’ve been carrying around multiple little baggies of pills in my backpack for years and over 20+ flights, several international, they’ve never asked.

Some are separated but loose in the bag (ibuprofen, cetirizine, diphenhydramine, from a bottle), and some were trimmed to minimum size from a blister pack and placed in the bag.

They focus a lot more closely on my headphones, charging cables, battery packs, etc.

So whatever is most convenient for you, in my opinion.

EDIT: they didn’t flag my epinephrine auto injectors (see: needles) either the three or four times I forgot to put them in the bin separately. Granted, those were domestic US flights.

If it’s a simple otc med, maybe just grab a small bottle once you get to destination.
