As we are in the middle of cold and flu season, I just wanted to remind our students and families of our medication policy related to students carrying over-the-counter (OTC) medications at school. Students are permitted to carry some OTC medications at school only if a signed parent medication authorization form is on file with the nurse. OTC medications that are permitted to be carried by students include: Tylenol, Acetaminophen, Motrin, Advil, Ibuprofen, Midol, Aspirin, Antacids, cough drops, and oral antihistamines. All prescription medication and any OTC medications not listed above shall be kept in the nurse's clinic.

The student and parent/guardian are responsible for the following:

- Obtaining, reading, and signing a written permission form before the student is allowed to carry approved medication.

- Ensuring the medication is in its original container and legibly labeled with the student's full name.

- Reminding the student he/she is not permitted to give his/her medication to other students.

- Ensuring that the School Nurse has a copy of the signed permission form on file in the clinic, and the student carries a copy of the signed form with the medication(s)

If you have any questions regarding the medication policy, please contact your school nurse at (706) 546-7721 ext. 20764.

Yours in good health,

Nurse Eve
