6. Medications

It is a good idea to have a variety of common medications in your first aid kit. Aloe vera gel can help treat sunburns, and calamine lotion and hydrocortisone cream are great for bug bites and itchy rashes.

You should also have over-the-counter pain medications, antacids, laxatives, anti-diarrhea medications, and cold and cough medications.
