Standing Order Medications: Many of the children at WVSDB are residential and reside with us for extended periods of time. Because of this, it is necessary for Health Services (Infirmary) to keep medications on hand to treat the children during acute and short-term illness or injury. Below you will find a list of medications that are stocked in the Health Service Office and the applicable uses. Please review the list and indicate yes or no. This form gives permission for the licensed nurses employed by the school to determine necessity and administer these medications. It is not necessary for the student to be examined by a physician prior to administration. Dosage of medication will be based on age or weight.
Medications Yes No
Benadryl (Diphenhydramine) - is an antihistamine used to treat allergy symptoms. These symptoms include sneezing, watery eyes, runny noses, itching, hives and rash. This medication is fast acting and can be given as the first line of defense against allergic reactions. Benadryl can cause severe drowsiness and will be avoided during school hours unless deemed necessary.
Cold and Cough Medications – Cough medications are made up of four main ingredients. These ingredients are combined together or in different combinations to treat different symptoms.
1. Brompheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine that is used to provide relief of sneezing; itchy, watery eyes; itchy nose or throat; and runny nose because of hay fever (allergic rhinitis) or other upper respiratory allergies.
2. Dextromethorphan HBR is a cough suppressant that works by slowing the cough reflex. It is marketed alone as Delsym and used alone to treat dry coughs in the absence of congestion.
3. Phenylephrine HCL is a nasal decongestant that relieves sinus congestion and discomfort caused by colds, allergies, and hay fever. It works by shrinking the blood vessels in the sinus passages and reducing swelling. It is often referred to as Sudafed PE (not be confused with pseudoephedrine - Sudafed).
4. Guaifenesin is an expectorant and is used to loosen congestion in the chest and throat. It is marketed alone as Mucinex.
Claritin (Loratidine) – is given to treat allergy symptoms. It is an antihistamine used to treat symptoms such as sneezing, watery eyes, and runny nose. It is usually given for a 10 day period. If the medication results in improvement and symptoms return after medication is discontinued, it may be suggested that the student obtain authorization from a family physician to be medicated on a regular basis. This medication is non-drowsy.
Gas-X (Simethicone) – is administered to reduce bloating, discomfort and pain caused by excessive gas in the stomach or intestines.
Mylanta (Alumina, Magnesia, Simethicone) – is an anti-acid / anti-gas used as a treatment for heartburn, acid reflux, and reflux.
Imodium (Loperimide) – is used to treat acute or chronic diarrhea. It works by slowing the digestion so that the small intestines have more time to absorb fluid and nutrients from the foods that are eaten. It is only given when the diarrhea is excessive and/or there is an increased risk of dehydration.
2 | P a g e
Milk of Magnesia (Magnesium hydroxide) - is a saline laxative used on a short – term basis to treat occasional constipation. It is indicated when a child has had no bowel movement for three or more days and presents with complaints of abdominal pain, abdominal distention, restlessness or other indicators that constipation is causing discomfort.
Dramimine (Dimenhydrinate) – is used to treat nausea and motion sickness. This medication will not be given for nausea caused by illness unless the vomiting is excessive and risk for dehydration is present.
Motrin (Ibuprofen) – is administered for the treatment of fever/pain. Ibuprofen is also an anti-inflammatory. This medication will be the first choice for injuries that have resulted in swelling of the soft tissue.
Tylenol (Acetaminophen) – is administered for the treatment of pain/fever. It is the first choice for pain/fever if there is no inflammation involved.
Chloraseptic Throat spray – used to treat minor sore throats with no other symptoms.
Sore Throat Lozenges / Cough Drop – given to ease the discomfort of a sore throat and throat irritation responsible for cough.
Orajel (Benzocaine) – used topically to treat pain related to tooth pain or cold sores.
