The Household Count
Medicines
Copy what the bottle and the pharmacist already say. Ask a doctor or pharmacist before you set any extra supply aside. This page does not choose a day-count, and it does not invent a dose.
Each medicine
Copy this block for every prescription. Write the dose the label already shows. Leave “Days” empty until a clinician writes it.
Items the house already uses
Ready.gov’s kit page names pain relievers, anti-diarrhea medication, and antacids or laxatives. The CDC prescriptions page names pain and fever relievers, antihistamines, and antidiarrheals. Write the product this house already keeps. Leave the dose blank if the label is not in front of you.
Fiction. Not your house.
The apartment household has one refrigerated medicine. This sample does not name it, does not print a dose, and does not fill the day-count. The cooler plan is a question for that household’s pharmacist, not a product this page recommends.
