OK well if everyone wants to just posture instead of providing information, I will add my two cents that as long as I don't bleed to death in 10min I am sure I will be quickly transported to one of at least five top notch hospitals within throwing distance of my apartment.
I was just hoping someone might know a reputable company that makes good medical kits. Could be for in a car, at home, just in case on a camping trip. I wasn't looking for something that would carry me through a firefight in Africa against the Wagner group.

I made a search for both first aid kit and tooth aid kits and I found a lot of different pack of first aid kits and some tooth aid kits. So I did not know what to post. We have a private ambulance service here in Denmark called Falk. I use to have their first aid kit. I post this homepage 'cause here you have a decent mount of first aid kits and other important things to stay alert. https://www.redcross.org/store/first-aid-supplies Markus

IMO only, Much of the stuff in those prepackaged kits anyone can live and survive without. If there is something useful in them you have to sift through all the zippers filled with dozens of crap lotions, creams, anti diarrheal, catheters, aspirins, antacids, motion sickness, baby wipes, cough and cold meds, rubber gloves, masks, iodine tablets, just to find what you really need. Unless you’re camping next to a hospital. My recommendation is prepare for the bad things that could happen which would prevent me from just getting in the car and go see a doctor. Also everything can fit neatly in a ziplock bag and stored in an easy access fanny pack or outside pocket of a backpack.

50 packs of Aspirin is pretty worthless. Not to mention every swinging Richard on the Site would raid those instead of buying them for their hangovers! On job sites it's illegal to have your kit locked. So I stopped stocking Aspirin and minor stuff. Just the important stuff to handle bad injuries. Aspirin don't help when a Guy cuts an arm needing 37 stitches! |

The most important first aid kit consist of two small tin/copper cup and a bottle of ones favorite bottle of alcohol.

For band-aides I'd suggest the fabric ones over the plastic style.
Then learn how to x-cut them for fingers and such. They hold better and last longer. Toss in a roll of electrical tape also. A million+ construction workers swear by electrical tape for 1st aid! I kept yellow, red, and green rolls of electrical tape. Red for Gonna need stiches. Yellow for keep an eye on it. Green for just stopping blood drips from getting all over. |
