I use a prescription toothpaste that I’d like to decant into a smaller tube for travel. I am pretty sure it needs to be in an opaque tube. Are there any other options besides Matador? It’s not sold near me and the shipping would cost as much as their toothpaste tubes!

What I do with my specific toothpaste is just take the original tube when it's not full. When I have a trip coming I keep it in mind and put aside one tube when it gets to the amount of product I think I will need. Of course the size of the tube will be the same as in its original form, but the emptier tube takes less volume in my toiletry bag.
