What all would you pack into a mini portable first aid kit? (lemmy.world)

I ask this because I just finished packing a pocket sized mini first aid kit, using supplies from our full size home kit. I'm sure people will mostly agree with the contents I packed, but does anyone have any other suggestions?

This is the kit I packed today, should I try to add anything else? There's not much space left, but I can probably stuff a couple other flat packet items in there, so am I like missing anything obvious that might fit?

Just FYI, a lot of chemical names don't really work like that.

Norco (opiate painkiller) is HYDROcodone and acetaminophen. TONS of medications start with HYDRO but have nothing to do with opiates.

~~METHylphenidate~~ Methylprednisolone is a common steroid often prescribed to kids

CYANoacrylate is to CYANide as GRAPEfruit is to GRAPE.

Edit: methylphenidate is in fact related to meth. I had my names mixed up. My bad!

I thought methylphenidate is used for ADHD? As in Ritalin

Whoops, good catch. I was thinking of Methylprednisolone. It's been a while since I've been in the pharmacy.

Methylphenidate is in fact related to meth, lol.
