I grew up in a culture where the medicine cabinet is a standard in homes. What I remember in our medicine cabinet at home was the bottle of aspirin which my mother said is very important for us kids. When we have a fever it is always the aspirin that made us well. I don't remember having paracetamol during my student years. There's also the small bottle of tincture of iodine for treating wounds. A pack of cotton, the bandage and the band-aid for cuts. There were lotion and ointment for specific purposes like the vaporub for insect bites that until now we still have that in our home. The vaporub ointment soothes the skin with mosquito bite.
In this modern time where every district of community has a drug store it seems that the medicine cabinet is not that very essential anymore. You can video chat with a doctor and the prescription can be sent to your phone. The nearby drug store will honor the digital prescription so there is no need to stock up on medicines at home.
