This video actually several years old, but I just came across it recently and I thought it was worth sharing. There are basic first aid kits out there for $10 or $20, but you get what you pay for with kits that cheap. If you really want a quality kit that will cover a wide range of medical problems, you're going to spend closer to $100.
But in this video, The Patriot Nurse explains how to put together a good medical kit for only $50. She points out the things most likely to kill people in a long-term disaster are wounds, diarrhea, and upper respiratory infections. Her kit is based around these things.
Here's what she recommends:
- Guaze (4×4 pads)
- Band-Aids (3×4 pads)
- 70% Isopropyl Alcohol
- Hydrogen Peroxide
- Apple Cider Vinegar
- Ibuprofen
- Tylenol
- Benadryl
- Medical Tape
- Mini Flashlight
- Kotex Pads
- Mucinex
- Halls Cough Drops
- Immodium
- Hydrocortisone
- Antibiotic Ointment
- Butt Paste
- Nitrile Exam Gloves
- Instant Cold Packs
- Thermometer
I highly recommend checking out the video below where she explains these items in more detail and what they're for.
