A family relative in the medical profession and another in the LE profession tells me that it is illegal to carry your prescription drugs in anything other than the dispensed bottle.

  If that is true it must be some obscure Health and Safety code. 

I carry my meds in a pill box and I use the 7 day pill dispensers you buy at the drug store when on vacation.  I order my RX's by mail and it is for a 3 month supply and the bottles are very large.  I never carry those bottles with me.

"I never carry those bottles with me."

You, me, and just about anybody who has to swallow a handful of pills every morning.
