List of basic meds to keep on hand?

I'm looking for a list of basic medicines to have on hand for cervid care and emergencies. I know I saw a list on this site of recommended supplies to have on hand, but for some reason I cannot find it again. We are a new game ranch in Michigan. We are familiar with Xylazine, Telazol and Tolazine for the darting aspect, but what would you recommend we have on hand for other problems.



We have a relationship with our local large animal vet and would like to ask him for supplies all at once. We won't be breeding other than what occurs naturally in the herd. But I realize we could end up having to help a fawn or two out.



If anyone can direct me to the list that was already published or can give me a list of starter meds, I would greatly appreciate it.
 
LA 200, Draxxin, Banamine, C&D Antitoxin, Vitamin B, Fawn Paste, Probiotics - I know there is a list somewhere I will try to look it up for you.
 
Here some info off of the old forum site:



Xylazine

Telazol

Tolazine

LA200

BO-SE

Vit ADE

Vit B

Banamine

Draxxin

a bag or two of lactate ringer solution

Can't tell you how many bottles of LA-200, bo-se, thiamin, vitamins, etc. we have thrown out because of being expired. When we get them from the vet now we ask for the latest experation date they have and the smallest bottle. It's saved us a few bucks. But you can't take any chances there are things you just have to have on hand for emergencies. And you know they always come when the vet is not open.
