For otc's think Advil\Excedrin (or both), Imodium,and any other over the meds that you can see you or your family needing during a traditional flu season. Someone mentioned here in another thread that the .gov ran a field test for the .mil and discovered most meds have a much longer shelf life than is listed on the bottles (i think 10 years?). Lots of these meds are available under store brands and can be had for extremely cheap at wally world.
I just picked up some wally world store brand Excedrin, a 250 ct bottle ran me about 4 bucks where the name brand ran 14.xx. 72 tablets of Imodium ran me about 3 bucks. Good stuff to have extras of.
