Stat Modifiers
Medicine is an item used in doctoring.
Acquisition
Medicine can either be purchased from traders, looted from raiders, 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.
Efficiency
Superior to herbal medicine but inferior to glitterworld medicine.
Best used for treating diseases and infections; misused if for standard injuries (unless a colonist is bleeding out faster than the herbal medicine completes to patch the wound).
Good enough for surgical operations in many cases, with a low chance of failure. If the doctor is bionic-enhanced, trauma savant, drug-enhanced or inspired then you can guarantee 100% success rate for most surgeries.
It is adequate against plague and malaria with ordinary beds so long as the patients are resting full-time, well-fed, constantly treated and the doctor is healthy with medicine skill 8+.
