As we all look for winter projects, you might consider performing an inventory on your first aid kit. To help get you started, I have attached my first aid kit inventory as just one example. It is important to tailor the kit to your specific needs. I also attached a link to a case which could be attached to the back of the passenger seat in your Bronco.

Great list!
I would consider Benadryl tablets also. It would be beneficial for those with bee sting allergies or other insect reactions.

Absolutely! That brings back memories of black flys in Alaska. One poor guy had no bug net and was eaten alive. Luckily he packed Benadryl!

Yes! Great place to store your kit. My old container was all worn out. That is why I am buying a new container which is Molle grid ready as shown in the original posting.

If you have a need to have one I would include an epipen.

For humans and if you have dogs with you I would add a small bottle of Hydrogen peroxide and a medical lab 20mil or more syringe. Hydrogen peroxide is good for cleaning wounds,. For dogs if they eat something they should not it get's whatever it was out of their stomach a minute. That's what the syringe is for so you can shot a few tablespoons into their mouth.

I’m a pharmacist so would add:

1. Cheap box of Baking Soda. It can be used as an anti acid ...is useful for battery and acid burns. (Also substitutes for toothpaste and deodorant)

2. Isopropyl or denatured alcohol which is useful for antiseptic and hand sanitizer.

3. Salt (packs are fine) ...when added to bottle water makes a safe, isotonic eye or wound rinse. (Other emergency uses, as well)
