How I Got A 260 Pill SHTF Antibiotic Stockpile

How I Got A 260 Pill SHTF Antibiotic Stockpile

How I Got A 260 Pill SHTF Antibiotic Stockpile

Diane by Diane

Modern antibiotics are lifesavers. Without them, a simple cold can quickly turn into a deadly pneumonia, an infection in a small cut can mean the loss of a limb, and many ordinary childhood problems turn deadly. In fact, they have worked so well that we often turn to them as our first line of defense whenever an illness pops up.

But what if they were no longer available. In a crisis situation, the supply might be quickly used up, just when they are needed the most. I’ve chosen to stockpile a few different antibiotics for just this reason and I want to show you how you can do the same.

Buying Antibiotics to Stockpile

There are several ways to build up an antibiotic stockpile. The most expensive way to gather a stockpile is to ask your doctor for prescriptions of the antibiotics you will need. Most doctors will be reluctant to write these prescriptions, so this may not be as easy as it sounds. But if you know your doctor well and he or she is sympathetic, this will work.

You could also order your antibiotics from another country where a prescription is not needed. This method also has some risks since you don’t know the quality or authenticity of the medicines you receive. It is also illegal.

The method I chose is to purchase pet medicines that are the equivalent of human prescriptions and are available online for a reasonable price. I thoroughly research the maker and the quality of their products before purchase and make sure I know what dosages are appropriate for human use. Let me stress here that it is always preferable to consult a doctor before using any medicine, especially antibiotics. I am stockpiling these antibiotics for use when modern medical care is not available.

Choosing Antibiotics

My goal for this project was to choose a range of antibiotics that would cover most any bacterial infection that comes up. I chose to stockpile 4 different antibiotics plus an antibiotic ointment for external use on cuts and skin infections. I will probably expand this stockpile in the future. Here are the antibiotics that I chose:

Amoxicillin

How I Got A 260 Pill SHTF Antibiotic StockpileAmoxicillin is the pink bubblegum flavored liquid that used to be prescribed for every childhood infection. Doctors are wary of prescribing it too often now because of resistant bacteria. It is a penicillin antibiotic that treats many different types of bacterial diseases including: bronchitis, pneumonia, tonsillitis, ear infections, sinus infections, urinary tract infections, E. Coli, salmonella infections and some STDs including gonorrhea and chlamydia. Standard dosage is 250 mg every 8 hours or 500 mg every 12 hours, depending on the illness and severity.

I purchased Fish Mox, the amoxicillin equivalent made by Thomas Labs. 30 tablets, each 250 mg, cost me $9.99. These tablets are marked as not for human consumption, but their formulation is identical to the amoxicillin that is made for human use. Ideally, I will stockpile several bottles of Fish Mox, since each 30 tablet bottle is enough for 1 treatment.

Ciprofloxacin

How I Got A 260 Pill SHTF Antibiotic Stockpile

Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic in the fluoroquinolone class. It works by stopping the multiplication of bacteria, preventing the spread of the disease and promoting healing as the existing bacteria die off. I choose to stockpile Ciprofloxacin because I have seen it work miracles when other antibiotics have failed and it covers a wide range of infections, including some that might be expected in a SHTF situation.

Ciprofloxacin treats infections in the skin, lungs, bones, joints, and urinary tract. It treats infectious diarrheas caused by E. Coli, Campulocater jejuni, Shingella, septicemic plague caused by Y. pestis, tuberculosis, anthrax, and typhoid fever.

For my stockpile, I chose Ciprofloxacin  Fish Flox Forte made by Thomas Labs A bottle of 30 x 500 mg tablets cost me 38.99 on sale. For most infections the usual dosage is 250 to 750 mg every 12 hours.

Metronidazone

How I Got A 260 Pill SHTF Antibiotic StockpileMetronidazone is the generic name for Flagyl, an antibiotic that is effective against anaerobic bacteria. It is used to treat diseases of the abdomen such as peritonitis, liver abscesses, and abscesses of the ovaries and Fallopian tubes. It is also effective against Giardia lamblia and amoeba, two intestinal parasites that are common in contaminated water, as well as trichomonas which causes vaginal infections.

I purchased 100 tablets of Fish Zole made by Thomas Labs which contains 250 mg of metronidazole per tablet for $58.25. The recommended dosage ranges from 250 to 750 mg, three to four times daily, depending on the illness being treated.

Cephalexin

How I Got A 260 Pill SHTF Antibiotic StockpileFish Flex is the Thomas Labs equivalent for Cephalexin. I purchased 100 tablets of 250 mg each.

Cephalexin is a cephalosporin type antibiotic that treats gram-positive bacteria. It has many of the same uses as the penicillin class antibiotics, but it can be taken by most people that are allergic to penicillin. It is very effective at treating skin and soft tissue infections such as boils, carbuncles, and deep tissue infections. It is regularly prescribed to treat bladder infections, upper respiratory infections, bone infections, kidney infections, ear infections, pharyngitis, prostatitis and to prevent bacterial endocarditis during some dental procedures.

20% Ichthammol Ointment

How I Got A 260 Pill SHTF Antibiotic StockpileI also stockpile an external ointment known as drawing salve or black drawing salve. I began using it long ago on skin infections and have seen it work wonders. It prevents infections when used promptly, even in deep cuts and I have seen it cure infections that had become established and were not responding to antibiotics.

Ichthammol is ammonium bituminosulfonate, a sulfur compound that has anti-inflammatory, bactericidal and fungicidal properties. It treats and promotes healing in skin infections and skin diseases such as psoriasis, rosacea, and acne.

A small 1-ounce tube of 20% Ichthammol for human use is currently $10.98, but I purchase the large 14 ounce tub for use with horses and pets for $14.99, a big savings.

Erythromycin

Many preppers choose to include erythromycin in their stockpile. I considered it and decided against it for several reasons. Amoxicillin and Cephalexin treat most of the same diseases that erythromycin is used for and erythromycin has a short shelf life. It degrades into a potentially poisonous substance that can be dangerous. Most antibiotics have long shelf-lifes that extend far beyond the expiration date. It is available in a powder form for fish use, but I was not happy with the information available on the formulation. Many preppers do use it, so do your own research if you decide this is an important antibiotic for your family stockpile.

Purchasing Pet Medicines

You want to be very careful when purchasing pet medicines. I researched the makers of antibiotic products thoroughly and chose to go with products from Thomas Labs because their products are USP certified quality antibiotics which helps me feel confident about the safety of the product. Their products also come in convenient tablet or capsule doses so there is no guesswork on doses and no need to make my own capsules.

One bottle each of the 4 antibiotics I chose cost me a total of $140, including sales taxes, a reasonable expense for the protection they provide. I recommend a minimum of 1 bottle of each, per person in your household, and extras are always a good idea.

This is not a long-term solution. You should also have a variety of natural remedies at home. I have a backyard garden that has all the medicinal plants I need. These pills are just in case I need a stronger dose. I haven’t had to use this stockpile yet as I managed to treat my ailments with plant-based tinctures and infusions.

    Note that Cipro has some long term side effects, including degeneration of tendons. I trust vet meds. It’s one thing to put granny in a bad way with bad meds and it’s entirely different to harm a $2 million race horse.

    You should seriously consider adding tetracycline to your list, because there are a number of serious rickettsial diseases such as Rocky Mount spotted fever and some other similar such illnesses for which your list of antibiotics would prove inadequate. I have no idea if there is the “pet form” of this, but it is still worth trying to find this antibiotic.

      Hi Iguana, Tetracycline is certainly very useful; however, it is one of the medications that must be used by its stated expiration date since it degrades and becomes toxic to the liver when it is stored for a longer period of time. So, you would have to be very careful not to use any expired Tetracycline.

        If I vacuum sealed tetracycline in a bag with an oxygen absorber, wouldn’t that make it store longer? Isn’t the oxygen and humidity a big part of how long it keeps or why it degrades??

    Until the drug-resistant strains we’ve come to realize, we used to buy Amoxil and Erythromycin from a pet supply in aquarium / tropical fish store. I came to worry about the purity of the pet supply drug compared to the pharmacy, ‘made for humans’ brands. Is there a big difference and is this something to be concerned with in using the pet store version

    There are many research papers about how dangerous it is to use fish-antibiotics due to the incorrect dosing, and sheer guessing-games you’d be playing with your lives when you use the wrong antibiotic for the illness.

    I’d be all for stocking up on life-saving antibiotics – IF – I also had at least one or two medical professionals in my bunker. Otherwise, you could be creating bigger problems for you and your family. I’d stick to all-natural, eastern medicine and holistic choices if I didn’t have an experienced doctor and nurse in my SHTF survival group.

    Treat the symptoms, and let the body do its thing to fight back naturally. Elderberry, Nutmeg, Tumeric, Ginger… these are all very helpful natural ways to boost your body’s ability to fight infections and viruses.

      Thomas Labs is the same U.S. lab company that makes the antibiotic pills for humans. They are the same pills. The numerical code imprinted on a particular antibiotic designated for fish, will be the very same numerical code imprinted on the human version, that can be looked up in any prescription drug book for nurses – as it is the very same pill. I wouldn’t trust anything made outside of the U.S. or anything that is in powder form designated for fish. I only use the pill form, from Thomas Labs. The ‘Not for human consumption’ is for liability and no need for prescription legalities, only.

      I am sympathetic to a point. But bear in mind, in a SHTF situation, you may not have the luxury of letting you body rid itself of the bacteria that killed millions over the course of history. Get hold of a current Nursing Drug Handbook. Self help is one of the critical areas that should be studied before an event. Not preaching, just suggesting that knowledge is power.

    As recently as July 10th the FDA issued yet more warnings. Many are life altering and permanent.

    See kpaddock DOT com/fq for links to the warnings.

    Also I’m up to 39 people that said their Cerebrospinal Fluid leak started after taking Ciprofloxacin or Levaquine etc. These drugs will be removed from market someday. The manufactur of Levaquine has already stopped manufacturing iy. Sadly the generic is still being made.

      I’m sorry for your loss. I understand. I took flagyl once and had a drink…the next day I had no mind! I was wanting to drive off of the bridge….no reason. I had no idea. Luckily I had a friend who talked to me and made me realize I needed to go to his house where he watched me til I got past it. Who would know that? NOW they put warnings on the bottle but it says to avoid alcohol. That’s all. Not that you could lose your mind!! Again I’m sorry you had this happen to you and some meds really do this. There is no way to know unless it happens to you or someone who tells you. Luckily for me I’m allergic to cipro so I wouldn’t do it but I could have…. Thank you for sharing.

      Essential oils are no substitute for antibiotics. You should read some medical history to get a picture of just how bad things were in pre-antibiotic times. A cut, an animal bite, an infected boil – all of those could kill you. Once an infection took hold there was nothing you could do except hope your body killed it before it killed you. With antibiotics, assuming the clowns who take them for three days every time they get a cold don’t mess it up for us by creating more resistant strains, you can knock most bacterial infections right down. Essential oils just don’t do that. They might have their uses, but they are not a replacement for antibiotics. Nothing is.

      Animal (particularly predator species) internal organs often process substances differently from those of humans.

      Chocolate and aspirin poison canines. Shouldn’t be giving them to felines either.

      On a third hand, polyethylene glycol (antifreeze) poisons all mammals and birds.

      Sorry. Keep hitting the down button instead of reply. Be very careful giving human meds to your dogs. Check with your vet first. Some are fine but others are highly toxic. We have 2 dogs
      One got one of my antihistamines. I called animal poison control. Turns out that particular antihistamine (chlorpheniramine) is a neurotoxin in dogs. I did get him to throw up and he was fine, but my point is: NOT all human meds are safe for our pets.

    Heart patients should not take Cipro or Flagyl. This is why I (heart patient for the past 21 years) would not hesitate to find a pet form of bactrim or another sulfa.

    Regarding pet meds, look up Ivermectin, an anti-parasite drug which has been very safe for humans and animals for 40 years. It has been recently found to perform excellently against the Chinese virus. I found the most information on You Tube, but make sure it is the latest date, because the acceptance for this virus has been evolving very quickly. Aside from maybe the vaccines, I think it is the best drug available.

      I’m not convinced the “vaccine” is going to work. Anything injected into the body that causes an auto immune response is not welcome in my house. As for Ivermectine, it’s an effective wormer/anti parasitic and has saved countless children in Africa.

    The choice of Ichthammol Ointment. If you are looking for a drawing salve that ready works, try Amish Origins. Amish Origins Draw Salve ingredients are: Olive oil, bees wax, chickweed, comfrey, plantain, oil of camphor, wintergreen oil, eucalyptus oil, pine oil, lavender oil.

    Or if you are creative you can make your own. Here is how.

    Amish black salve recipe

    Ingredients

    • 3 Tablespoons comfrey root and chickweed (or substitute plantain) infused olive oil
    • 2 Tablespoons coconut oil
    • 1 Tablespoons Beeswax
    • 1 teaspoon Vitamin E oil
    • 2 Tablespoons Activated Charcoal Powder
    • 2 Tablespoons Kaolin Clay or Bentonite Clay
    • 1 Tablespoon honey
    • 20 drops (or more) Lavender Oil
    • 20 drops (or more) Tea Tree Oil
    • 20 drops (or more) Pine Needle Oil
    • 20 drops (or more) Eucalyptus Oil
    • 20 drops (or more) Wintergreen Oil

    Instructions:
    • Wash 8 – 2 ounce glass salve jars and set out on parchment paper, keeping the lid off but close by.
    • Mix together the activated charcoal and bentonite clay in a bowl and set aside.
    • In a double boiler melt your beeswax and to that add the coconut oil and mix together thoroughly until both are melted. Stir continuously. Add honey.
    • Slowly add the charcoal and clay mixture and stir well.
    • Remove the mix from the heat and then add the essential oils.
    • Pour into the jars and allow them to cool 20 minutes before putting the lids on.

    How to use: Generously apply to afflicted areas and cover with a bandage or leave to the air. It may take several hours to days to extract something complicated like a splinter, be sure and apply more salve as needed. For external use only.

    This remedy is non-staining and safe for individuals of all ages, including children.

    For a softer salve add less beeswax and more for a harder salve.

    It’s a difficult decision to stockpile antibiotics, but one that could save your life.

    I’m not a doctor. I’m not a nurse. I don’t work in the medical field at all. But I have been stockpiling antibiotics for years now, and it’s saved my life on more than one occasion – both from illness and from injury.

    The first time was when I was living in Asia and had a bad case of food poisoning that landed me in the hospital for five days. The doctors were able to diagnose what was wrong with me quickly enough, but they didn’t have any of the medications that I needed to get better – so they prescribed me an antibiotic that would help my symptoms until they could get it shipped in from America or Europe (which would take about two weeks).
