Non-radioactive medicinal or toilet articles (including aerosols)

These articles include such things as perfumes, deodorants and aerosols such as hair sprays for personal use. A general airline industry way to verify whether a substance can fall into this area is:

If you can rub or spray the contents on your body, digest the medicinal article safely, then it may be termed a medicinal or toiletry article.

This would also include magnetic belts/pillows/blankets used for medicinal purposes.

A protective cap must always be attached to the individual aerosol container to prevent inadvertent release of the contents.
