Hello Doctors, Professors, and Medics.
I'm curious to know your opinions on Paracetamol vs Tramadol. I did some experimenting with Paracetamol last round, and I think it has a lot of potential.
60u is the OD, which will last you through the majority of the round. That means ONE 60u PILL can last over an hour. That's pretty good if you ask me.
However, there are a couple drawbacks in that it doesn't heal brute very fast and reacts negatively with Trama. On the upside, it's a pretty good long term painkiller, which is very useful.
So from what I've tested, it's completely viable take Paracetamol at the beginning of the round, and spend the rest of the round on Bicard for any brute damage. I could totally see myself as a combat medic asking for this from chem. You just have to make sure to tell people, as some bald medics and marines will then use first aid injectors or Trama and kek themselves.
tldr;
Tramadol: Mild painkiller, heals brute fast, metabolisms fast
OR
Paracetamol: Mild painkiller, heals brute slow, metabolisms VERY slow
