I am due to travel to Canada from the U.K. in October. I SI and so will need to take B12 , syringes and needles with me .
Can I put these in the hold luggage .Will there be any restrictions and is it likely the syringes etc will be confiscated at customs ? Any advice welcome .

Maybe check with your airline's website - most ask that medical supplies are carried in your hand luggage. I flew with BA recently, taking ampoules, needles and syringes, and had no problem at Heathrow or my destination. I'm sure you'll be fine, just think how many people with diabetes must fly every day. Have a great trip!
I live in BC, Canada. I don't need a prescription here to buy needles and injectable cyanocobalamin. I would guess it is the same in the rest of Canada? It is probably better though to bring what you are accustomed to taking.
