I've seen some posts about getting Jevity onto the plane, but does anyone know what kind of flack I'm gonna get to take my mouthwash on the plane? I have to rinse 5 times a day with a concoction since my last biopsy hole in my tongue is having trouble healing.

Exceptions to the Restrictions for Liquids, Gels and Aerosols

All prescription drugs and over-the-counter medications including insulin and other diabetes medical supplies, petroleum jelly, K-Y jelly, eye drops, and saline solution.

Liquids including water, juice, or liquid nutrition or gels for passengers with a disability or medical condition.

Life-support and life-sustaining liquids such as bone marrow, blood products, and transplant organs.

Items used to augment the body for medical or cosmetic reasons such as mastectomy products, prosthetic breasts, bras or shells containing gels, saline solution, or other liquids.

Frozen gels or liquids are permitted if required to cool medical and infant/child exemptions. Ice is permitted as long as there is no melted liquid present.

Baby formula, breast milk, juice or water for a traveling infant small child.

Breast milk is in the same category as liquid medications. A mother flying without her child should be able to bring breast milk through the checkpoint, provided it is declared prior to screening.

If you have liquids, aerosols, or gels the meet these exceptions, they can be in containers larger than 3.4 fluid ounces (100 ml), and do not have to be inside of a quart sized plastic bag, but do have to be declared at the security checkpoint.

Have a letter from your doctor for you mouthwash and in my experience you'll be OK. Just be prepared to show off your tongue....

It's too bad the TSA employees don't bother to read the web site excerpt posted by Kevin. Still, with a doctor's note explicitly mentioning the mouthwash, you should be able to bring it on board, although don't be surprised if they insist on opening the bottle and testing it. You will also note that the TSA rules say you can bring water on but I have never read or heard of that being honored either. You might consider putting a sealed bottle of mouthwash in your checked luggage as insurance if you absolutely have to have it.
Finally, bear in mind that the few people who run into the even fewer TSA employees who follow these guidelines usually don't post on internet boards nor their personal blogs, while those of us who are treated like criminals by TSA do.

Thanks Kevin and Charm. The mouthwash is a prescription and I don't have a spare bottle so I guess I'll have to let them test it if they want because I do need to use it daily.

I think I would worrry about contamination if they tested any medication that is liquid. This shouldn't be allowed unless under strict supervision.
