Adult Medicine
Keeping your home medicine chest well stocked will bring much needed relief if you get sick and can’t get to a store or supplies simply
aren’t available. If you take special medications, you should be sure to stock up on them as well. If you take prescribed
medications, let your doctor know that you are prepping and ask if they will prescribe some extra meds. Don’t be surprised if
your doctor say no, so find out if there are any other over the counter or natural remedies that can give you some relief in an emergency.

and always pay attention to recommended dosages and expiration dates.
