I just found in our local Dollar Tree Store two items that you might find useful for a FAK. Both are based upon the ampoule in a swab dispensing method. The first was proviodine swabs and the other benzocaine swabs. Both were packed 24 to a small easy to carry plastic case.

I've been searching for those (party of a sampler to send to JIM) as well as to stock my own kits.

Gonna have to swing by I think!

Is there a difference in performance between Povidone-oidine and Benzocaine?

Povidone-oidine is an antiseptic wash. Benzocaine is a topical anesthetic.
