If it is controlled or narcotic and they are prescription medication make sure you do not carry large quantities. Your medication must be clearly labelled with ur name on it as in the passport and you should have a prescription handy.
Most pain medication is available here with prescription

hey, u r most welcome. i am not sure about the flights. best to check with an agent as you would definitley like to get a good airline company, especially first time - u need to carry some extra weight.
