'''Medicine''' is used to improve outcomes when treating a colonist's [[injury]](s), to remove or install body parts/replacements, and to build hospital beds.  


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

'''Good Treatment''' doubles a colonist's heal rate and reduces the chance of any lasting effect from an injury.

As doctoring greatly depends on consciousness, sight and manipulation, having a doctor with bionic eyes and hands greatly improves the effectiveness of your medicine.

The table above describes the importance of a doctors consciousness, sight and manipulation. For example: if a doctor has only 75% manipulation, his healing quality and healing speed is reduced by 25% * 90% = 22.5%, while his surgery success chance is reduced by 25% * 40% = 10%.

-'''Medicine''', also called '''industrial-tech medicine''' in the [[Health#Health tab|Health tab]], is an expendable item used in [[doctoring]].

-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.
+'''Medicine''' is used to improve outcomes when treating a colonist's [[injury]](s), to remove or install body parts/replacements, and to build hospital beds.
-== Summary ==
-{{stub|reason=Tend speed}}
-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.
-With a Medical Potency of 100%, medicine has a 100% multiplier on both tend quality and surgery success.
+Healing is done by colonists with the [[Skills#Medicine|medicine]] skill enabled. The patient needs to have [[Overview#Patient|patient]] enabled and be in a bed. Medicine is not required, but will '''improve the chance of a good treatment''' drastically, allow for the '''healing of multiple small injuries in one go''' and '''double the amount of experience gained''' by the doctor.
-Medicine does not spoil, but will [[deteriorate]] when left outside.
+'''Good Treatment''' doubles a colonist's heal rate and reduces the chance of any lasting effect from an injury.

-== Analysis ==
+As doctoring greatly depends on consciousness, sight and manipulation, having a doctor with bionic eyes and hands greatly improves the effectiveness of your 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.
