Thirteen years ago, Survivalblog ran an article from Dr. Cynthia Koelker with this title “Ten Essential OTC Medications to Stockpile.” It is easily actionable and supremely valuable, so go read it.
When you are done, download this PDF of my summary cards. You can print them out double sided and put them in the box with your meds. Make a good note of the underlined part in the card – you can buy this OTC as Advil Dual Action containing the suggested ratio of each pain reliever.
And while you’re at it start assembling your paper library of reference materials. It should include a copy of Dr. Koelker’s book Armageddon Medicine.
You can find it from various retailers online for about $80 – don’t fall for the eBook nonsense. Hold it in your hands.
In a future post I’ll go through my self reliance library by title and explain what I kept and why.
