I found this home first aid shopping list in an article by MedicAlert. Some good ideas!
- Acetaminophen (Tylenol) or Ibuprofin (Advil)
- Aspirin
- Hydrocortisone cream (for rashes)
- Antibiotic ointment
- Hydrogen peroxide (to disinfect and clean wounds)
- Calamine lotion (for itching from insect bites and poison ivy)
- Petroleum jelly
- Adhesive bandages of assorted sizes
- Butterfly bandages
- Elastic wraps (ACE bandages) for joint injuries
- Gauze in rolls and 2" and 4" pads for larger cuts and scrapes
- Adhesive tape
- Sharp scissors with rounded tip
- Tweezers
- Thermometer
- Latex-free gloves to protect hands and reduce infection risk
