yea put it in your luggage or they may ask you stupid questions. just in case take your prescription with you.

Nemo123 is right. And keep the prescription with you. You will be needing that in future too because you will have to buy your regular medication over here and if you have the prescription, you can easily transfer the medication to a prescription over here. Keeping prescribed medications along with you might make them take you to "THE ROOM".

  But CHC require medical test in order to check your medical condition.

If you have no deceases then how can you take prescribe medicines? and doesn't it raise eyebrows if you show prescribed medicines by a doctor, they might think that you probably faked your medical somehow.

Hey AD, could I have your contact info or something. Since you're going to the same university, same course etc. I think it would be a good idea to stay in touch. Could you send me your e-mail address/phone no./facebook (any one would do) at nottushar[at]gmail[dot]com?

 @ fahad83: well prescribed medication can even be something for allergy to blood pressure, etc. They are not bothered about those. Medical test is only to detect the threat of the patient to the environment of Canada. Plus since the boarder already got tested, they wouldn't be bothered about what medicine he/she takes; they will just need to check whether or not he/she is taking things illegally
