The rules about bringing medicine into a country are usually enforced, if at all, when you return to your home country.

Mexico has a random customs inspection system. When you get to customs, there is a pole with a button and two lights, one red and ond green. You hit the button and get either a red or green light. If it is green you walk right through, if it is red, your bags are searched. Of course if you look suspicious, you will be stopped, but generally you just breeze on through.
