Detailed explanation-1: -Tablets and medication It is recommended that tablets and medicines should not be kept in the first-aid box. Some workers carry their own medication that has been prescribed by their doctor (eg an inhaler for asthma).
Detailed explanation-2: -WHY CAN FIRST AID TRAINED INDIVIDUALS NOT ADMINISTER MEDICATION? First aid trained individuals are not medically registered. This includes being trained in First Aid Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3. Medication should therefore not be kept in a basic first aid kit due to the possible adverse outcomes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Common OTC medicines that many people add to first aid kits include pain relievers and fever reducers, allergy medicine, and medication that quells stomach upset.
Detailed explanation-4: -What is not allowed in a first aid kit? Your first aid box shouldn’t contain any items that are out of date or no longer in a state to be used, e.g. they’re no longer sterile or have become soiled or damp for whatever reason. First aid kits shouldn’t contain any types of tablets or medication either.
