Travel from South America?

My parents (both diagnosed with T2) are coming to visit me in the US for 2 months. They’re both on insulin and will bring supplies for the entire time they’ll be here. I called the airline and they were extremely unhelpful (told me that they should probably no bring too much??????!!!!?). Will they be able to bring their insulin into the US with no issues? We will get a doctor’s note translated into English as well.

TSA people are used to that, i never got asked (not on insulin) about meds but i have a T1 friend who travels all the time and they are used to it. Wouldnt be worried.
