Yes you can take them in, yet if you have a lot, and IF they check your bags and find them, just make sure th labels are ok, and that you re prepared to "possibly" loose them, or hand over some cash (quietly maybe).
The Birthing Clinic up in Ubud had a hard time when they bought in a LARGE lot of vitamins for the children. First they were allowed to have them, then they had to return them (for supposed quarantine checks) then were asked for A LOT of money to get them back. Eventually they did get them though (just paid a small bribe).
If anyone is going to Ubud and would like to help out the birthing clinic, please drop us an e-mail and we can give you further details. They would love any donations - childrens vitamins are very welcome.
