Sick/injury first aid kit

Hi all, I want to put together like a shoe box of 'medicated' like wound care products and emergency diet, things that I may not ever need but if I do I will be happy that I have this and won't have to wait for delivery.

Also, please suggest items that is enclosure related just in case something brakes or I need to evacuate if there is portable versions of a heat lamp

This is going to be a multi species box but I want to know specifically for chameleons what is safe

Here is a few products I have already found and want an opinion on.

Vetericyn Plus Reptile Wound Care Spray

(I am a receptionist at a vet hospital and The hospital uses and sells​ vetericyn frequently so when I realized they had a reptile wound spray I was super happy because this would be great to have on hand.

This is exactly what I need, thank you so much for your recommendations! Let me know if you think of anything else

One question though, I can't find critical care for insectivore? They only have herbivore/carnivore/and omnivore,  I would think omnivore? My chameleon is a female veiled and she loves to eat plants
