Super Stimpak (Fallout: New Vegas)

A Super Stimpak is a more advanced version of the regular stimpak found in Fallout: New Vegas.

Gameplay
In addition to healing, the game also adds the debuff "stimpak sickness" which happens after using a super stimpak. The effects are -1 to Strength and -1 to Agility and its duration lasts for 3–4 minutes. It cannot be cured by Fixer but can be fixed with Buffout. It is very problematic, especially in combat, as it may cause the player character to become overencumbered, and therefore slower in a critical situation.

Crafting
This item can be crafted by the player character.
