Keep seven-day supply of essential medication

 

During an emergency, you might become isolated by floodwaters, so keep a seven-day supply of essential medication at all times. Keep copies of your essential pharmacy scripts in your Emergency Kit along with the correct dosage. If you don't have a script, in an emergency any pharmacy can provide you with a three-day supply of medication, but you'll need to know the correct name and dosage. Also, if you cannot pay for the medication, in an emergency pharmacists can get reimbursement for those goods, from the Department of Health and Ageing.
