Can I Bring Nitroglycerin medication on a Plane to Canada?

Nitroglycerin medication
Allowed
According to CATSA guidelines, nitroglycerin medication: Liquid prescription medications are exempted from the liquid restrictions and can be carried in carry-on baggage in volumes larger than 100 ml (3.4 oz.). These liquids must be declared to the Screening Officer separately. To facilitate screening, CATSA recommends that the medication be properly labelled (professionally printed label identifying the medication or a manufacturer’s name or pharmaceutical label). Attention Certain powders and granular materials may require additional screening, and in some cases, the items may not be permitted. We recommend that permitted powders and granular materials that are not required during your flight be placed in checked baggage. Exemptions on baby food or formula, life-sustaining medication, and sacred or spiritual items may apply.
The final decision rests with the CATSA officer on whether an item is allowed through the checkpoint. Official CATSA Rules →
