Planning to go from europe to asia. what is suggested medical travel pack to bring along? what drugs, bandages etc. are recommended for a longer trip?

Depends: See http://wwwnc.Cdc.Gov/travel/destinations/list.Htm, for recommendations on drugs and immunizations for each of the countries you plan to visit. For a general first-aid kit, i recommend pepto bismol, (bismuth subsalicylate) ibuprofen, an antihistamine, antibiotic ointment, antiseptic wipes, and a miscellaneous assortment of bandaids and sterile dressings.
