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?

    I’ve used superglue on myself before too, check my recent comments.

    Point is, it ain’t gonna store well in a vehicle glovebox. Not good for storage in a first aid kit, you want stuff that can last a few years or more…

      This depends on where you live. New Hampshire, you’re fine. Death Valley you have a point, but then I would trade cyanoacrylate for water.

        South Mississippi here. I can usually find a store with super glue somewhere within a half mile radius of my area, in the meantime I can use the bandages or 2x2 inch pad and tape until I get to a store.

        But yeah you’re right, smaller first aid kits and survival kits are best arranged depending on the location and more common risks and needs.
