Sue is technically correct -- the word means separation.
In checking with my friendly local US pharmacists, it appears that separanda is not commonly used here. My brother-in-law is a pharmacist in London, but I can\'t contact him until tomorrow.
A pharmacist here kindly explained that there are 7 classes or categories of drugs.
Class 7 being over-the-counter, Class 6-- perscription and Class 1 is severely restricted e.g. heroine. Classes 2-5 are various levels and reasons of restriction.
In Israel (and in the Gaza Strip) one of these classes is referred to as separanda (apparently Latin) maybe a holdover from the Mandate.
The following source goes to the trouble to use the Latin spelling:

ארונות - כולל ארונות נפרדים - Separanda.
