My kids all have medication throughout the year. The pharmacist gives me a second label along with all the medications. When a small pill bottle becomes empty, I save it for those times that my kids go on sleep overs or camps. When it is time to send the kids off, I fill several small bottles with their various medications and attach one of the most current extra labels to the bottle.

We can't do that in Missouri, due to our state laws. If you want a 2nd label, the pharmacist can only do it by splitting your order into 2 bottles. I've been a pharmacy tech off and on since 1981.
Prior to this law in Missouri, there were times where someone put a second label on a bottle but put a different medication in it--the liability goes back to the pharmacist. So, this may not work for everyone. If it is a prescription one takes monthly, you can always save the bottle from the last month for school or camp use.
