MedBag is a travel-ready medical kit created by two Canadian emergency physicians. It contains carefully selected medications and first aid supplies to help you manage common illnesses and minor injuries when you are away from home.

As emergency physicians and frequent travelers, we have experienced firsthand how difficult it can be to find the right medications when traveling. MedBag was designed to provide peace of mind by keeping essential treatments organized and readily available wherever your adventures take you.

MedBag is ideal for families with young children, solo travelers, business travelers, road trippers, campers and outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to be prepared for common medical issues.

Contents vary by kit, but may include pain and fever medications, allergy medications, motion sickness treatment, diarrhea relief, heartburn treatment, first aid supplies, topical antibiotic ointment, wound care supplies, electrolyte replacement, and children’s medications in the Family Traveler Kit.

The Solo Traveler Kit is designed for individual travelers and includes adult medications and first aid essentials. The Family Traveler Kit includes everything in the Solo Traveler Kit plus pediatric medications such as Children’s Tylenol (80 mg/mL), Children’s Advil (100 mg/5 mL), and Children’s Reactine.

All medications included are widely used over-the-counter products when taken as directed. Each kit includes educational information outlining appropriate use, dosing, and precautions.
