Fire ant nectar

Fire ant nectar is a consumable item in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, it has an unmodified duration of four minutes.

Characteristics
When you consume the nectar it grants you +25 fire resistance and boosts your Agility by +4 but drops your Intelligence by 3. If taken in excess, you can get addicted to it though the chance of addiction is very small. Taking 7 doses in a short amount of time is relatively safe, however the eighth dose will have a 100% addiction chance due to the UMON effect.

Location
Found frequently on the corpses of fire ants. Fire ant nectar is more common in Fallout: New Vegas, due to a larger number of ants and the fact that workers have a 20% chance to drop the item versus the 17% of their Fallout 3 counterparts. Furthermore, it can also be found in ant refuse piles along with the normal ant nectar.
