Discussion about the hypothetical scenario of a zombie apocalypse.

Unless stated otherwise, by zombie we're refering to The Walking Dead -kind of undead creature.

Serious discussion only.

It's water, isn't it? And second one is food. Well what about the third?

Most meds can store for a very long time, like years if kept cool and in the dark (the US Army did a study because they need to know, I don't have a link handy, sorry). There are some exceptions (which you noted) - like insulin. Though I think even it can be stored for quite some time if it's kept refrigerated. Meds are definitely among the highest value because of limited storage capability.

Sure they can be stored, it’s getting them where is the problem.

Most of my meds I can only get one month supply at a time.

Most meds, yeah. Alas, for our household, there's a total of four meds that can't be stored. Which, it is what it is, they're all miles ahead of the meds that came before them in efficacy.
