These are the items that everyone should have in a basic first aid kit:

• alcohol
• peroxide
• baby wipes
• gauze
• compression bandage
• triangular bandage
• adhesive tape
• Polysporin
• Neosporin
• bandages
• blister bandages
• hand sanitizer
• cotton balls
• cotton swabs
• scissors
• tweezers
• safety pin
• thermometer
• ibuprofen
• acetaminophen
• Benadryl
• aspirin
• anti-diarrhea medication
• antacid
• laxative

A first aid kit can be purchased with most of these supplies already in it. Or you can purchase some kind of a bag that will hold all of these first aid supplies. Either way, it’s important that everyone carries, a basic first aid kit in their cars! Or takes it with them regardless of where they go!
