What if my child takes a “Controlled Substance” such as Concerta or Adderall?
An original prescription is required. For campers staying more than 30 days, an additional prescription for a 30 day supply of meds is required. It is against the law for a “controlled substance” to be refilled. Please send a separate prescription for every 30 day supply. All prescriptions for the child’s camp stay should be received by CampMeds at the same time. Please visit our website at www.campmeds.com for a detailed letter you may give your physician on controlled substance prescriptions to be dispensed by the CampMeds pharmacy. You may explain that we can accept two separate 30 day prescriptions written for the same date, but they will only be dispensed one month at a time. The physician may also write both prescriptions each with a different date, as per the physician instruction letter.
