Using Medication in DayZ is a MISTAKE 💊

The point here is prevention is better than cure. And you need to learn to prevent illness rather than treating it because it'll save you a lot of time and pain.

Being ill, even when recovering, can not only negatively impact your game(i.e throwing up leaving you vulnerable and defenceless) or hinder your combat and defense by creating screen and stability issues, but even acquiring the medication at all is usually risky. Because medical facilities are filled with players.

And given you can still experience symptoms while recovering, it's better to learn the medical system and stay well. Learning to rely on cure over prevention is hurting you. And it kills so many players.
