I started carrying a pocket FAK a few weeks ago. Nothing really earth shattering, Just some aspirin, Ibuprofen, Claritin D, Benedryl, Immodium and some Zofran (REALLY good anti-nausea medicine) for Patty. I also have some bandages, 2x2 inch gause, germ-X wipes. I also have a SAK classic in it now along with 3 PCB and my ferro rod that DT made for me.
It amazes me how much of the stuff I have used. Mostly the meds, but also the Knife (scissors and tweezers mostly) AND the cottonballs and ferro rod once.
I have it all inside a metal (hinged lid) metal soap container that has a size of 3.75 X 2.75 X 1.25. It fits in my pocket pretty well.
If you don't carry anything like this, start carrying a few items and you will be surprised at how much you will find a "Need" for it.
