Taking adderall (medication) out of Philippines

Details

Adderall is a Schedule II controlled substance in the US and equivalent schedules in most other jurisdictions. Personal-use quantities (typically a 30-90 day supply) accompanied by the prescription and doctor's letter are generally permitted for export under Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act 2002 (RA 9165). Above these limits, a PDEA / FDA Philippines authorisation is required in advance. Destination-country rules on Adderall import are more restrictive in many jurisdictions (Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, UAE, Saudi Arabia).
