As long as the pills are still in sample packets then you should be ok. I read a story a while ago where here in Georgia that it is illegal to travel at all with prescription medication of any kind that is not in the original bottle. This includes automobiles or public transportation.
I just traveled to the East Coast and back by plane,in my backpack I had 2 weeks of prescription medications (5 pills a day ) in plastic pill containers... no questions were asked...if I went out of the country I would be in trouble?
Yeah, well I guess I do break the law all the time.
I take a variety of medications, when I travel somewhere I usually bring a couple of percocet as well, since I have a bad back, and a flare up can be excruciating.
I do not take five different bottles. If I am going away for five days, I empty enough of all the meds to last me five days into one bottle.
Against the law? Perhaps. Should someone swing for making a big deal about it and notifying the press, if it is determined to be an employee of a state or federal agency?
Absolutely.
