Doctor's Bag (Fallout: New Vegas)

A doctor's bag is a consumable item in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
A doctor's bag is used to heal all of the limbs that are crippled in both Normal and Hardcore modes. Using doctor's bags, getting healed by a doctor, using the drug hydra, sleeping in an owned bed or using healing poultice, daturana or weapon binding ritual from the Honest Hearts add-on are the only ways to heal crippled limbs while playing in Hardcore mode. The bag may be used to heal all limbs for a small amount, or through the stats screen, can be applied to a single limb for a much greater effect.

Crafting
This item can be crafted by the Courier.

Creation requirements

¹ Craftable without a workbench via a dialogue option with Veronica, or with ED-E with at least 1 rank of the Camarader-E perk.

Behind the scenes
The symbol depicted on the doctor's bag is the Caduceus, which actually symbolizes commerce, but is commonly erroneously used as a symbol of medicine instead of the correct Rod of Asclepius.
