Going to Mardi Gras Party? Taking your meds with you?
When you go through the gate, tell the security staff you have prescription medicines and ask to speak to a Mardi Gras Medical Team member. They will take you aside and discuss your medications discreetly. These discussions are private and confidential. Mardi Gras Medical Team members have up-to-date information about current prescription medications, including HIV medications.
You must bring your medicines in their original containers to make it easier to authenticate the medication. Once medical staff confirm the medication is legitimate, you will be able to take them into the party.
