My first aid kit

Having a first aid kit with some basic medicines is a must for every travel. The first aid kit is the collection of the basic medicines and equipment to administer anyone at the first stage before getting the medical help. This post aims at the things that I carry in my first aid kit.

I maintain a small pouch with:

Waterproof band aids
Bandages with either a sticky tape or butterfly clips
Block out for treating the sun burn
Aeroguard insect repellent
Panadols (pain killers)
Anti-nausea tablets
Tablets for loose motions
Tablets for constipation
Antiseptic cream/wipes (Dettol wipes)
Wet wipes
Disprin (headache tablets)
Scissors & tweezers
Medicines for cough and sore throat
Eye drops

Note: Ensure you check the expiry date before using any of the medicines. And ensure you don’t carry the scissors and tweezers with the first aid kit if you wish to take the kit as a carry on baggage.
