Got sick is one of top 3 alarming case when we live away from home. (the other 2 is we're being kidnapped, or we spent too much cash). So every time I went back to China, my Dad would pack me a heap of drugs.
As I sorted my reserve drug the other day, I realized there are plenty of expired drugs, and some I forget why my Dad prescribed me for, and some.... only pills, without label.
SO, after putting aside the expired drugs, the non-labeled drugs, here's the rest of it:
Homoclomin-Homochlorcyclizine HCl: for itching accompanying dermal disease (for my chronic urticaria and dermographism)
Panadol-Paracetamol: relieves headache, toothache, myalgia, fevers in influenza
Panadol Extra-Paracetamol500mg+Caffeine65mg: for my headache and migraine

Dolo Neurobion-Paracetamol500mg, vit B6 100mg, B1 50mg, B12: reduce pain caused by neuritis and neuralgia. I usually use this drug when panadol extra didn't work for my severe migraine, or any toothache.
Neurobion-Vit B6 200mg, B1 100mg, B12 200mcg: Prevention&Treatment for Vit B1,6,12 deficiency, peripheral neuritis and neuralgia. (no I confuse, when will I use this?)

Now if next month I forget any of these drugs function, I just take a quick peep to my blog. and... if any of you (read: dorm neighbor) have any of these symptoms, and need any of my drugs, just knock my door like whenever, and you will have the drug for free, and extra cash for delivery service :P
