That is how you obtain the drugs. Explain to a sympathetic doc that you are going trekking in the hinterboonies and
that you have the knowledge and the need for such a kit.

Just what the doctor ordered if you are sailing for Tahiti
on an extended cruise. Indeed, it may actually be skimping! I'd want injectable antibiotics and morphine along with a full kit for starting IV's....something a paramedic would call standard! An injury seven or eight
days out would leave you hundreds of miles and days or even weeks from assistance. Exactly the scenario this thread is all about!
