First Aid Box: do you use one? What's in it?

That's it, really. Where do you keep it? Do you keep paracetamol and Calpol and Gaviscon in it? Do you separate OTC from prescription pills and cream etc? I need to find better ways of dealing with all the stuff you get from the chemist's, or similar shelves in the supermarket. Advice please.

My first aid box is a pink Tupperware box that has ‘First Aid’ written on it in permanent marker! It has plasters, disinfectant spray, steri strips, wound wipes.

Anything else medical - prescription and OTC drugs, creams etc - is kept in a box on a high shelf in our bedroom

I have a green first aid branded bag, the idea being that it’s obvious for anyone to know what it is, it lives on a shelf in the kitchen. Has plasters etc - anything you might need for an accident. Regular medicines etc live in the bathroom cupboard (in a box, which is largely about keeping it away from little kids).
