Supplements

Only if ordered by an MD and has pharmacy label. 

We require that they are FDA approved, with the proper md order complete (my district has its own form), pharmacy label, parent permission slip signed and brought in by the parent/guardian.

We don't require FDA approval, because there's always the odd, valid, off-label medication use, but I make it well known what is needed (see above) and nearly 100% of the time, the parent gives up on it (I imagine it's usually because they know they won't get the pediatrician to agree to writing the order). If the doc actually goes through with the order, I think I would still call the MD to speak with them surrounding medical necessity of the order (just like I would question meds in a hospital setting). If their reasoning is well... reasonable, then OK, I'll give it, but if it sounded like BS or that they're just pandering to a parent, I think I would argue with them on it and whether or not it HAS to be given in school... 

We require FDA approval here, so something that is accepted for a generally wide spread use (such as Lactaid for kids with intolerance) would not be permitted.  RX or other FDA approved medications being given for off label use, such as a gabapentin being used in a child with ADHD is permitted.
