Can you bring baby medicine on a plane with LATAM Airlines when traveling with a baby?

 

Bringing baby medicine on a LATAM flight

 

Yes — you can bring baby medicine when traveling with an infant on LATAM. Medicines and infant foods are generally allowed in carry‑on beyond standard liquid limits, but they must be screened and declared at security if requested. To make your journey smoother, follow these tips

  • Carry medicines in your hand luggage so they are accessible during the trip and won’t be lost in checked baggage.
  • Keep original packaging and labels and, when possible, bring the prescription or a doctor’s note showing the child’s name and dosage.
  • Bring only the amount needed for the trip plus a little extra for delays.
  • Declare syringes, needles, or injectable medications at security and have supporting documentation available.
  • Baby foods, breast milk and formula are allowed in reasonable quantities for infants and will be screened separately.
  • If medication requires refrigeration, bring insulated containers and notify airline staff at check‑in if you need special handling.

If you want absolute certainty for your route or country rules, contact LATAM customer service or the departure airport security before travel — they can confirm any local screening requirements.
