<!-- In my opinion its impossible to have a perfect first aid Kit. With this in mind I prefer to have different levels of kits a personal every day IFAK, a car kit with some extended capabilities and then a fairly comprehensive home kit. What I have listed here are the base kits that I have augmented fairly extensively to make kits I am fairly happy with. -->

Buy these OTC medications in fullsized bottles to keep at home fill
the above containers and make a kit for your car and laptop bag.
That way you always have what you need and have the bottles at home to keep everything refilled.

❏ Ibuprofen
❏ Acetaminophen
❏ Loratadine
❏ Dimethylhydrine
❏ Docusate Sodium
❏ Loperamide
❏ Bismuth Subsalicylate
❏ Activated Charcoal
❏ Caffeine

Liquid Skin and Leukotape together can handle pretty much everything you would ever use a bandaid for
but allow you to cut to the size you need instead of running out of the correct sized bandages.

## Weapons

<!--packing a lot of weight on ammo. If you expect to need to use it then by all means. I personally carry 2 loaded extra mags and 1 extra 50rnd box in my pack for my pistol. I carry a .380 for weight and concealability reasons. might consider adding a carbine if your expecting that much urban combat.-->
