- Adrenaline pre-filled syringes for injection for medical emergencies, like severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), cardiac arrest, or severe asthma attacks.
- Glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) spray for the relief of chest pain (angina). It works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, allowing more blood flow to the heart.
- Oral glucose (non-diet fizzy drinks, glucose gel, powdered glucose, sugar lumps) for quick energy in patients with low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia).
- Oxygen cylinder for patients with difficulty breathing or low blood oxygen levels.
- Salbutamol inhaler to treat and relieve symptoms of asthma and COPD. It works by opening up the airways and making it easier to breathe.
