A Guide For All The Meds, Poisons and Antidotes ?

[Mike Rodik]

I know what some meds do like bloodbags, but don't know how different it is than saline. Same goes for bandage and plastiseal or morphine and fetanyl. I would love to know if there is a guide made for the meds. I have looked for it but the game isn't that big and it is hard to find.

If you're just looking for their stats, wiki. Though that's not really a guide.

all you really need to know is meth/roids helps with low oxygen, morphine/opium/fentanyl fix near anything else, and bandages for bleeding.

Building on what pyr0 has said:
Below you will find common treatments organized by severity.

For general ship operations you will want something for broken bones, burns, and radiation sickness.

For burns - Pomgrenade Extract > Bandage > Antibiotic Glue > Morphine > Fentanyl
For broken bones - Pomgrenade Extract > Morphine > Fentanyl > Deusizine
For radiation sickness use - Stabilozine > Antirad

---------

For combat operations you will want something for lacerations, internal injuries, bleeding, and blood loss.

For lacerations use - Bandages > Antibiotic Glue > Plastiseal > Morphine > Fentanyl
For Internal Injuries use - Pomgrenage Extract > Hyperzine > Morphine > Fentanyl > Deusizine
Bleeding - Bandages > Antibiotic Glue > Plastiseal
Blood Loss - Saline > Blood Pack

--------

For specific operations you will want something for Husk Infection, Paralysis, and Psychosis

Husk Infection - Broad Spectrum Antibiotics (minor), Calyxanide (moderate), No cure (severe)
Paralysis - Anaparalyzant (Use BEFORE combat with thalmus, you will need to be with team)
Pyschosis - Deliriumine Antidote (minor) > Haloperidol (severe)

--------

You will note there is a trend of effective medicines that you HAVE to have on hand.

These include - Bandages, Saline, Morphine, Stabilozine, Calyxanide, Anaparalyzant, and Haloperidol.

Pomgrenade and Antibiotic Glue are great to have, but are a luxury due to cost.

Pomgrenade requires the plant. The best way to grow this plant is in an isolated room with a sky artifact. An alternative is to partially flood the room it is in (but not above the plant).

Antibiotic Glue often requires a medical fabricator, which is not on every ship.

--------

As a final note, I recommend having a syringe gun loaded with paralyzant on hand in case your teammates decide to get frisky with your meds. Wink wink.

EDIT:

As for poisons -

Raptors bane will work against mudraptors

Radiotoxin may work against anything (look at forums discussing jovian radiation easymode)

I've heard antibiotics may damage creatures (causing organ damage). This is unconfirmed.

Otherwise, most poisons are ineffective and for fun value only.
