Can I carry medicine in Turkish Airlines cabin luggage?
I am travelling to an Asian country from Germany (Cologne-Bonn Airport) by a Turkish Airlines flight. My transit is at Istanbul. I will be carrying some calcium tablets with me in my hand luggage.
Is there any restriction from Turkish Airlines or airport Security for carrying medicine in hand luggage?
I did not see any such restriction at Turkish Airlines website.

Although pnuts has written a very clear answer, I'd like to add my experience. I've flown Turkish Airlines many times, almost always had basic pills such as paracetamol in my handbag, and never had any problems neither at boarding nor at Istanbul Airport security control.
