[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools usually have pretty clear guidelines about how they expect medication to be handled. Kids carrying their own medication, other than emergency meds like epi pens, glucagon, and inhalers, is generally illegal. I would contact the school, and ask them how to handle it. At our school, the person to ask would be the school nurse.[/quote] +1 OP this is not for you to arrange on a personal basis. Adults chaperoning the school trip will be responsible. If this means they will need to coordinate with the host families, it means they will be coordinating with the host families. Make sure you have filled out your school district's form for medications to be administered. In MCPS this form must be signed by the prescribing doctor. [/quote]
