Of the following items, which are not mandated by the FAA to be stocked in the medical kits on US commerical flights?

  • aspirin
  • diphenhydramine tablets

  • atropine
  • IV amiodarone
  • IV dextrose
  • IV normal saline
  • AED
  • oropharyngeal airways
  • adenosine

All are required except IV amiodarone and adenosine. The other medical items required by the FAA to be stocked on commercial flights include:

  • IM epinephrine (1:1000)
  • IV epinephrine (1:10000)
  • inhaled bronchodilator
  • lidocaine
  • nitroglycerine tablets
  • nonnarcotic analgesic
  • instructions for medication administration
  • sphygmomanometer
  • stethoscope
  • latex gloves
  • syringes
  • needles
  • IV catheters with tubing and connectors
  • AMBU bag
  • CPR masks
These items are the minimum and offer a pretty good repertoire of tools. No cric kit though. I guess some SC/IM benadryl for local anesthesia and a fork or pen would have to do.
