As I arrived on the boat to work for the next three weeks, I was dismayed to discover that I was coming down with a bad head cold.

I carry a prescription decongestant as well as several over the counter medications for this eventuality.

I find that I may not have packed sufficient quantities of some otc meds and 1 of my meds have been used and not replenished.

I am going to make a Cold/Flu Kit (CFK?) to be kept on the boat. I am thinking of having the following items in it:

15 day supply-EXTENDRYL G TABLETS - Prescribed decongestant
6 bt - Sambucol Elixer
1 bt - Mucinex D
2 pk - Sudafed
2 bx - TheraFlu
2 pk - Cough Drops

What else am I missing??? I have other OTC (Ibuprofen, Immodium, etc) and prescribed (broad spectrum antibiotics) meds in my regular FAK that is a part of my PSK.

I need some input from y'all ETS'ers.
