Well, when you're travelling on a long vacation, you want to make sure that you have enough medication that's going to meet your needs. And typically what I do is I add a few extra pills, maybe another week's worth just in case my trip gets extended or there's some unexpected event that comes up. This is because you want to make sure that you do have your prescriptions with you just in case you need them.
