@amu45sin, In an emergency situation, there is no time for a first responder to do a search for medications. And I don't think that they are authorized to go thru any of your belongings.

I wear a Medical Alert bracelet. My member number and info can be accessed by first responders if I am not here at home. https://www.medicalert.org/?srsltid=AfmBOoov6x5Hv2puUhLo1Nkk_UdLlVUnAVfYdaWHy56_CuVUzqVqlFtt

One my fridge is a red magnetic backed envelope from File of Life. This has my important information, including health conditions and medications, emergency contacts, doctors, etc. First responders will look for this. This is a great company to help you get things in place. https://www.thefileoflife.org/
