What's in your first aid please?

[Sasababe]

After a 20 year break, I'm a bit forgetful as to what I used to have available to me in my first aid kit. That and the fact there must be lots more products iut there now.

What do you have in yours? What are your must have please?

 

[Callieann]

Animalintex, vetwrap bandages, clean square of plastic, poultice boot, hibiscrub, salt, sudocream, sterile dressings, antiseptic wipes and purple spray. There are other things but these are my main items

Much of the above already mentioned but add nappies of various sizes, different sized socks (excellent for pulling over poultices), stethoscope in each kit too.
I have 2 med boxes in the yard, one is solely for poulticing,a 3rd one lives in the horsebox.

 

[Carrottom]

In addition to the poultice kit I like to have flamazine cream for any small cuts and gold label wonder gel for skin problems or scrapes.

In addition to the above I also keep some Sedalin in my lorry kit. Luckily not had to use it so far, but I like to have it on me in case horse needs to be calmed whilst awaiting breakdown cover or sitting in a traffic jam etc

Is this your company?
You are certainly spamming/replying to all the older 1st aid threads with the same link ?

ignoring the plug for human stuff.... i am adding to my kit medical grade sterile honey, i'm getting through a tube every few days at the mo and it would have saved me paying vet prices for the first couple of dressing changes if i had it already and some saline.

I forgot I also had a stash of medical bandages in the cupboard, some stretchy knitted ones and some soffban which is proving useful. and some adhesive bandage tape. I'm finding amazon is pretty economical for topping up supplies like this at the moment, if you have Prime.

I’m a fan of dermisol wound cream also a couple of sachets of bute ideally prescribed by vet from previous injury as they don’t give it out for prevention. I also have comprehensive poulticing kit duct tape Soffban Coflex animalintex. A thermometer cotton wool hibiscrub and eye drops.

The only thing I would add to the items already mentioned is Filtabac - excellent cream for minor cuts and grazes (applied once cleaned with hibiscrub or similar), and it stays on well as a barrier against water, mud and flies. I wouldn't be without it.
