I see people chasing masks and hand sanitizers when you should really be stocking up on vital medicines and other medical remedial products to avoid any kind of panic later. With government and WHO advising us to practice home-quarantine, it's a good idea to stock, not hoard our cabinets with a few basic and readily available medicines right about now.
If the thought of knocking the doors of pharmacies have skipped your mind too, don't worry, I've got you covered. Here's a checklist of 10 medical essential you should keep at your homes all the time.
A word of advice though: Always check for the expiry date on the meds before you make the final purchase.
You cannot fight the virus with a bunch of pills but you can definitely get rid of normal fever or headache or even a toothache with these medicines in your cabinet. Don't go popping these pills for mild symptoms, save them for a real emergency. Dolo 625 can also give the same relief.

Flu season is upon us and, don't be surprised if your throat goes itchy and hoarse. It's a common problem around weather change but just to be safe add cough syrup or tablets in your list too.

Pepto-Bismol or Pudhinhara is a mild and good option if you have any kind of stomach ache at home. My advice; save yourself the pain and eat healthy food, drink warm water and avoid junk for now.

If you are already on drugs for diabetes, or any other health condition now is a good time to stack up all your meds for the near future. We can expect a few pharmacies still operational during the lockdown but it's always good to be prepared.
