Hemogen packs are a form of blood that can be drank by Sanguophages and other pawns with the Hemogenic gene to restore their Hemogen need.
Acquisition
Hemogen packs can be extracted from non-hemogenic humans with the Extract Hemogen[?] operation. This takes 1,500 ticks (25 secs) of work and increases their blood loss by 45%; if blood loss exceeds 100%, then the pawn will die. This operation is considered a violation for faction relations. Unlike most other operations, it does not consume medicine or anesthetise the subject.
Summary
Hemogen is a packaged form of blood, and can be extracted and implanted to alter a human pawn's blood loss aliment.
Hemogen packs can be consumed by Hemogenic pawns, satiatsifying the Hemogen need by +20 per package. This is worth 2 days of blood for pawns with the Hemogen Drain gene (including Sanguophages), and 10 days for those who just have Hemogenic. Any pawn can consume one for a measily 0.1 nutrition, though those without either the Hemogenic gene, the Cannibal trait, or a pro-Cannibalism ideoligion
get a stacking −5 Injested hemogen pack moodlet.
Hemogen packs do not rot, only deteriorate by being left outdoors or in otherwise rough conditions.
Blood transfusion
| This section is a stub. You can help RimWorld Wiki by expanding it. Reason: 1) How much hemogen does it restore to hemogenics and is that reduced if they also have blood loss? 2) Occasionally see them perform the surgery with 2 packs. Incorrect description? Bug? Restoring 70% bloodloss in on operation?. |
Use hemogen packs to reduce the effects of blood loss. Each hemogen pack used recovers 35% blood loss. The operation will also restore hemogen to hemogenic individuals.
— Operation description
Hemogen packs can be used to perform the "blood transfusion" operation, which restores a pawn's blood loss. The operation consumes 
1 hemogen pack, takes 800 ticks (13.33 secs) of work, and restores 35% blood loss. This surgery does not require medicine or a minimum Medical skill, does not anesthetise the subject, and always succeeds.
Note that the 35% blood loss recovered is less than the 45% lost from creating the pack in the first place.
