If you somehow forgot or lost your prescription meds, there are hospitals where these types of things are available. I'm sure that if you find looters in a pharmacy, they ain't walking off with a vial of insulin and a couple of needles.

I can think of ways to have people seperated from their medicine when people are being forced to climb onto their roofs to escape. Such people may not be in a position to trek to the nearest hospital. It is not a violation of the natural law to obtain necessary supplies during an emergency.

I'm sure "looters" are uninterested in such things. I was responsding to your absolute statement that it is always wrong to take without permission. That statement is false. If someone was having an anaphylatic shock in your presence, would you "steal" some epihephrine in order to prevent them from dying, or would you simply tell them "sorry, it's wrong, try to walk to the nearest hospital"?
