a peace corps medical kit
Here's what's in a Peace Corps medical kit, in case you're interested:
1. Non-aspirin pain reliever
2. Ibuprofen
3. Pseudophedrine
4. Benedryl
5. Pept-Eez (like PeptoBismol)
6. Antacid
7. Sepasoothe throat lozenges
8. Cough drops
Creams and Lotions
1.Hibiclens (Antiseptic skin cleanser)
2. Antibiotic Ointment
3. Anti-Fungal Cream
4. Hydrocoritsone
5. Bug Insect Repellent
6. Sun Screen
Other
1. Aquatabs (for water purification)

When the kit was handed out, I couldn't help thinking of the scene in Dr. Strangelove, where Major Kong hands out the emergecny kit after announcing we've just been bombed by Russia and it includes thinks like gold, cigarettes, nylons and prophylactics, and he remarks how a guy could have a pretty good time in Vegas with all this stuff. No such luck here!
