A Safari Medical Kit

Ever gone on holiday,or safari and found that all you had carried was irrelevant. That was my predicament last year when i made a tour of the Coastal Beach hotels in Kenya, boy oh boy i had bags of useless things and that inspired me to write this so that those who come across it will not sink into the same predicament.
1. Some anti-malaria is necessary.
2. Aspirin is also a good bet just in case of fever.
3. An antihistamanin will help especially due to insect stings and bits
4. Lozenges are also good to have at times there is lot of wind or cold air that may cause slight irritation of the throat.
5. Oral dehydration new food can cause your stomach to run for a couple of hours of days.
6. Water purification tablets. This is important in-case you get caught up in th bush
7. Insect Repelant, sunscreen and lip balm if nothing else on this list finds its way to your bag these are a must have.
