My daughter suffers from dermatitis and frequent colds. That's why every year for about a month we go to the country with dry Maritime climate, usually in Egypt. Sun, sea, fruits Paradise after rainy Moscow! And, of course, I always take a first aid kit.But last year, I made a mistake in collecting this important part of the baggage. The warm climate and the cold couldn't work in my view. Therefore, from drugs from ARI and ARI took only aspirin. On the second day of stay at the resort the child was percapella in the pool and got sick. The girl coughed heavily, her temperature rose. The doctor on the insurance, unfortunately, does not appear immediately. Fortunately, cough drops I borrowed the neighbours in the hotel, for which he thanks a lot.
This year I decided to approach the process of forming a first aid kit more responsible and asked for advice from the pediatrician Vladislav Makrievo who watches my daughter since birth. His main advice was simple and logical: baby first aid kit in the trip is primarily a means ambulance. Drugs for long-term treatment it is better to leave the house, because on vacation, regardless of where you are at the dacha outside Moscow or in the Mediterranean resort, it is necessary to give first aid to the child and continue to wait for the doctor. And he will tell you how to continue treatment.
Cold and flu
Treatment of any colds is, first of all, the struggle with the symptoms, i.e. fever, cough and runny nose, sore throat, sometimes otitis media. I want to remind you that fever and pain relievers is not recommended at body temperature below 38-38 .5 °C, because a moderate temperature increase is a natural protective reaction of the body and helps the immune system to fight viruses. From antipyretic today, many doctors recommend drugs on the basis of ibuprofen.
For example, for Nurofen for children in the form of a suspension with orange or strawberry flavor. Still relevant funds on the basis of paracetamol, such as "Efferalgan" for children (available in the form of candles and syrup). Suitable Fervex" for children from 6 years in convenient bags that contain powder with a pleasant vanilla-caramel flavor for solution preparation. It all depends on individual tolerance of the child. However, it should be taken into account: antipyretics not tablets act faster and less damaging effect on the stomach of the child.
The only medicine that relieves coughing, can be recommended, for example, "Sinead", mucolytic funds (thinning phlegm) - "Mukaltin", "Bronchicum", "Liexin far as possible". Against sore throat take lozenges "Strepsils", spray "Tantum Verde. The cold will help to cure the lavage of normal sea water. But it is better to use special drugs, containing sea water: "Akvamaris", "Aqualon". Also in the early stages of the cold and to prevent colds effective drug Olbas" containing composition of the essential oil. Of course, if these medicines will not help save the child from the cold, travel first aid kit need to have a traditional vasoconstrictor drugs such as Nasivin", Vibrocil, "Sanorin".
Popular tools to enhance nonspecific immunity, interferon can be taken if you used them before. They are active against all viruses are the causative agents of viral respiratory infections, regardless of the type. Suitable, for example, children "Anaferon", "Viferon-suppositories" (in the form of candles in pediatric dosage).
Loved by many parents antibiotics to take along on a trip is not worth it, since their use without the direct guidance of a physician is unacceptable. It is known that they do not destroy the virus, but cause serious harm to the stomach, inhibiting the natural microflora of the intestine and causing dysbiosis.
Trouble with stomach
Be sure to take a trip funds from intestinal disorders. First and foremost is activated carbon. When the ailments of the stomach it is given at the rate of 1 tablet per 10 kg of body weight. Effective also Furazolidone" that gently cleanses the mucous. If poisoning (diarrhea, vomiting) it is very important to restore the salt balance of the child's body. For this purpose it is necessary to give the child more fluids (tea, juice), but always in small portions - 1-2 teaspoons, so as not to cause repeated vomiting. Just in case, bring a dry potassium permanganate: a weak, slightly pink solution will help with gastric lavage. For constipation, it is better to use candles with glycerol. Diarrhea or diarrhea save "Smectite", "Neomycin" and "Imodium".
Wounds, bruises, mosquitoes and sun
A fall from a Bicycle, a fight - there's never any adventure can find the child! Therefore, peroxide, bandages, plaster must be in the first aid kit. Modern dressings on wounds from "Paul Hartmann" allow for quick first aid: painless to hold a dressing to protect the wound and to provide healing. From bruises and bruises ideal ointment "Badaga Forte" or "Capilar". Zelenka or iodine is at your discretion.
From insect bites good help "Psilo-balm", "Fenistil", "Tinaderm", sunburn - De-panthenol and all the same "Psilo-balm" and "Tinaderm". If the burns from the fire, it is better to use the ointment "Rescuer".
Just in case
If your child has allergies, do not forget to take antihistamines, for example, "Arius", "Sadak", "Kasten", "Xyzal". When planning air travel, boat trips, bus tours, travel by bus or car in General, long-term interaction with transportation to ensure that the child is not rocked. To do this, please be "Kokoulina" or "Draenei".
For the nerves, rather, they take Valerian and glycine. Don't forget thermometer for measuring body temperature and enema. The latter is ideal for nasal rinsing with cold.
