medication that may cause drowsiness
I can't think of a better concise English translation. The point is that the triangle marking indicates that one should not drive a car or operate machinery when using this kind of medication.
Per the Web reference I include below, this marking was phased out during the period 2005-2007 and is no longer used.

warning labelled medicine
As the triangle is used in Australia also, it might be OK to use:
"trianlge labelled medicine" (either a single l or double depending on the English variant, obviously American English uses "labeled".
Indeed you may wish to add the operating machinery part too
"medication with warning labels against driving or operating machinery"
