Stimpak (Fallout: New Vegas)

A stimpak is a hand-held medication used in healing the body. When the medicine is injected, it provides immediate healing of the body's minor wounds.

Characteristics
Stimpaks in Fallout: New Vegas function much the same as in Fallout 3, with one exception. If the player character chooses to play in Hardcore mode, stimpaks will heal over time (versus instantly) and will not heal crippled limbs. Limbs can only be healed by a doctor or with the use of items that specifically indicate limb healing in their information, including, but not limited to, Hydra, a doctor's bag, weapon binding ritual, daturana and healing poultice.

Crafting
This item can be crafted by the player character.
