Hi all, I'm moving to Dubai in 2 weeks and finding conflicting information about what I can bring into the country. I have three regular prescriptions: mercaptopurine (6MP/Purinethol), lansoprazole and the contraceptive patch. Obviously I'm not a resident until my visa is granted so does that restrict me to 3 months supply of each medication? I will be getting a doctor's letter. Does it need to be notarised as well? Am I ok to take cod liver oil etc with me without any prescriptions or should I just leave these at home? Also I hope this doesn't sound stupid, I see that you can't bring anything related to gambling into the country, does this include cards? (I ask because I had an issue in China with this). Other than that if anyone can recommend anything that they think is essential to take with me that I might find difficult to get out there, please let me know! Thanks :-)
