'''Medicine''' is used to improve outcomes when healing colonists.

Healing is done by colonists with [[doctoring]] enabled. The patient needs to have [[patient]] enabled and be in a bed. Medicine is not required, but will '''improve the chance of a good outcome''' drastically, allow for the '''healing of multiple small injuries in one go''' and '''double the amount of experience gained''' by the doctor.

-Medicine can either be purchased from traders, looted from [[raider]]s, or crafted at a [[drug lab]] using 3 [[cloth]], 1 [[herbal medicine]] and 1 [[neutroamine]] (skill requirement: intellectual 4+ and crafting 4+). Crafting medicine requires the "Medicine production" research to have been completed. Its [[Drug Synthesis Speed|synthesis speed]] is dependent on the [[Skills#Intellectual|Intellectual]] skill.

-Any form of medicine can be used whenever a [[doctoring|doctor]] tends to an [[injury]] or [[disease]]. In most cases, medicine does not directly cause healing. Instead, using medicine and better medicine will increase [[tend quality]], increasing the [[injury#Healing rate|rate of healing]] for injuries, or slowing down progression of a disease. For [[gut worms]] and [[muscle parasites]], tend quality is directly used to cure the disease.

-== Analysis ==
+== Imported Medicine ==
-Superior to [[herbal medicine]] but inferior to [[glitterworld medicine]].
-Industrial medicine is best used for [[disease]]s and [[surgery]], where Medical Potency has the greatest impact. A dose or two of medicine can save a colonist's life from the [[plague]]. So long as patients are constantly treated by a decent doctor, resting full-time, and well-fed, this medicine should be enough against any disease.

-It is generally misused for bruises, cuts, and other [[injuries]]. These are usually too common to waste high-quality medicine on; use herbal medicine or no medicine instead. But if a colonist is bleeding out rapidly, you may want to use better medicine for its increased tend speed and quality. Note that colonists are set to use the best quality medicine by default. In the [[assign]] tab, you can set colonists and other pawns to [[herbal medicine]] or worse. You can also alter this in a colonist's Health tab.

-Regular medicine is enough to reach the 98% [[surgery|surgery success chance cap]], under the right circumstances. A ''healthy'' doctor with Medical 8 can reach the surgery cap (for most surgeries) in a [[light|lit]], [[clean]] room, using a normal quality [[hospital bed]]. Without a hospital bed (or [[sterile tile]]), Medical 11 is required for the same thing. Note that many factors, such as a dirty room or a surgeon's damaged [[Manipulation]], will quickly lower your success rates.
