stingoes in case of an insect bite and I always take an antihistamine to treat reactions/hives,but that may be covered by your cold and flu med.Re-hydration medicine or pops that can be frozen in case of gastro. I agree with you in taking most stuff form home,then you know exactly what you've got and it is on hand immediately as needed instead of making a mad dash to the"Apotek" trying to explain your requirement!Also be aware that over the counter medicine sometimes contain drugs that are not approved for children in Australia specifically kids cold and flu syrup usually contains a substantial dose of Psuedoephidrine.You've got it covered! I have just packed our medical supplies for our 4 kids and they took up quite a bit of luggage,we leave in 13 days and also staying for a month,woohooo cant wait.Enjoy your trip.
