From the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) "You may bring all prescription and over-the-counter medications (liquids, gels, and aerosols) including petroleum jelly, eye drops, and saline solution for medical purposes."  Please remember to put them in a zip top plastic bag.

"You are not limited in the amount or volume of these items you may bring in your carry-on baggage. BUT if the medically necessary items exceed 3 ounces or are not contained in a one-quart, zip-top plastic bag, you MUST declare to one of our Security Officers at the checkpoint for further inspection."

The TSA also recommends labeling all items. You can actually find sticky tabs at Walmart (school supplies section)  which are small enough to go on top of each bin in a pill organizer.

For more information, please read this TSA page for Travelers with Disabilities and Medical Conditions.
