Painkiller

Painkiller is a type of drug in Pathologic 2. It is a homemade alternative to Morphine, with which it shares similar properties. As of Day 4, the Haruspex can make painkillers by combining a Tincture with a healthy organ or blood within the Brewery once it has been fixed.

When administered to another character during diagnosis, Painkillers reduce their pain. When used on the player, Painkillers increase health slightly, but at the cost of an increase in exhaustion. If used prior to sleeping, Painkillers vastly increase the rate of health recovery.

Aside from recovering health for the player, Painkillers have different additional status effects and brew times, which are determined by the type of organ used to brew the Painkiller.

Painkillers can be traded with infected Townsfolk, Worms, and Dandy in the Soul-and-a-Half Fortress.
