Can tourists bring drugs/medicines during their sojourn to the Philippines?

The Bureau of Customs of the Philippines allows tourist to bring their own prescriptive drugs but only in quantities sufficient for the duration of their stay in the country. Visitors are likewise advised to bring a letter from their physician stating the condition for which they are receiving treatment and the dosage.

For those who are traveling onward to another country, they are advised that a separate quantity of drugs should be sealed and declared again before exiting the country.
