Instructions for In-School Medications:
It is required that all medications, including Aspirin, Tylenol, Nose Drops, and of course, Prescription drugs be brought to school by a PARENT or OTHER ADULT. They are to be in their original pharmacy container. You may need to ask the pharmacist for 2 labeled containers for prescription drugs, one for home and one for school. The medication must be accompanied by a parent note and a signed physician's order stating medication, dose, time, how long and reason for taking.
The New York State Regulations concerning medication dispensing in school are very specific.
