Dispense drugs can afford very few of our contemporaries. None of us is immune from the flu, injuries, insect bites, colds and other ills. But are we ready for them? If a plate of erythromycin, an unfinished you once and abandoned, with the words "do not throw him, the suddenly useful, analgin, leaking bubble Zelenko, a bottle with some yellow tablet without a hint of their appointment and the name you call your home first aid kit, hence, to a meeting with the disease you are not completely ready. Of course, to turn your house into a storehouse of medicines can not, let alone use them without evidence and instructions of the doctor, but there are tools that are absolutely necessary to have on hand always. The attack of diarrhea or allergies, a strong cut, from France with a runny nose and temperature - is not a condition for successful trips to the store, especially if it is not very close and time is certainly not "childish." In other words, the benefits of the presence of homes necessary stock of drugs there. How can competently provide first-aid kit, and what means in the first place you can include in it? Medications various groups differ in the form of production and storage conditions. Leave them in the sun, in moist or hot environments can not. Liquid funds, for example, decoctions, syrups, vitamins or antibiotics, designed for injections, ear and eye drops, hydrogen peroxide, we recommend storing in the refrigerator. Access to the armory of children should be excluded, since any means, taken in "shock dose", for example, Nikofleks can lead to a modest impact. Be sure to conduct regular audits to detect and ruthless elimination of drugs that have expired. What will find application in every family? Shedding light on the technical side of the issue. The house must be: a thermometer, tweezers, pipette, measuring cup, rubber hot water bottle, bandages, including sterile, cotton, mustard plasters, enemas, plaster, rubber band, and fingertips. Among the required drugs called: soothing, gastrointestinal, pain relievers, wound healing, cardiovascular, allergy, antispastic, antiseptic. Never superfluous kameton, Citramon, activated charcoal, senadeks, aspirin, Sanorin, ammonia, paracetamol, Itrop, pinosol, immodium. To handle cuts and abrasions useful disinfectants: Zelenko, permanganic acid, and Vishnevsky ointment. Analgin sedalgin or withdraw tooth, headache, pain in the abdomen will help no-spa. Diazolin, suprastin, tavegil relieve from allergy, and drugs like valerian, tincture motherwort, barboval will calm down. If a family has a person suffering from heart disease, should have on hand valokordin, validol, nitroglycerine. Uncontrolled antibiotics (norfloxacin, tsipronata, ampicillin, etc.) can have extremely negative consequences, which is why they must appoint a purely doctor. On the eve of the expected flu pandemic is easy to buy antiviral drug remantadin, as well as immunomodulators, for example, aflubin. In conclusion, we recall that in addition to these funds from a person suffering from any chronic illness, in home medicine cabinet at all times must be taken stock of some drugs. And most importantly: medicine chest - this is not possible to do without recourse to a doctor, but only a way to hold on to his arrival or the arrival of an ambulance.
