TSA item rule · verified 2026-07-02
Can you bring asthma inhalers on a plane?
TSA's official answer, checked against tsa.gov on 2026-07-02.
Carry-on bag yes
Allowed — medically necessary liquids/aerosols are exempt from 3-1-1 in reasonable quantities. Declare it at screening; labeling is recommended, not required.
Checked bag yes
Allowed, but keep it in the cabin — you want it reachable, and TSA recommends the same.
Liquids, gels and aerosols in carry-on follow the TSA 3-1-1 rule. The final decision always rests with the TSA officer at the checkpoint.
