I found the medicine thing a bit confusing, as inhalers are on the list, but after some research I believe that prescription Ventolin inhalers are acceptable, there is nothing in them that are banned, as far as I can work out, and need no special consideration. In the USA you can buy Vicks Inhalers over the counter, not sure if such a thing exists in the UK, but these are definitely not allowed.

But I travelled with my Ventolin and it was all okay.

I just thought it was worth mentioning as its a tricky area!
