Miralax

I would request a private order from the camper's pediatrician with their dosing/instructions on it and treat it like I do all private orders instead of a standing order, since the age doesn't align with the standing order parameters. 

Thanks, I don't think I was clear.

It's not for a specific kid .. it's in our OTC stock meds. I would absolutely follow a Dr. note for it if one came in, but I was thinking for the kids that come to the infirm with belly pain, bloating and no poop for 5 days or whatnot. Last year the camp "nurse" (she was a new grad vet tech)" gave out miralax, and while looking at the bottle, I saw the age restriction, so told them I am not giving it out at all unless a 17 year old comes in, but was curious what you all do with the younger kids that are constipated. I did find some laxative tablets/liquid that are safe for 2 and up since posting, but I'm still interested to know what other places do.

Thank you so much for this. They won't give me a standing order for anything other than "follow bottle instructions".

I've asked.

 If residential, I'd try some good 'ol prune juice as a snack.  If no relief, I'd take that kiddo to urgent care to get the private order. 

I'd suggest that the camp director work on building a relationship with a PCP in the area to get more specific orders for their OTCs, that's what we do.  We essentially write the order of things we plan to stock and present it to them a few weeks prior to camp and get their signature on it. Compensation is a couple hundred bucks, but well worth the legal piece of mind.
