"Hmm these Vitamins can restore my health? Oh wait, only temporarily... Damn you pharmaceutical industry!"
―MagPuI

Summary

Pills have saved the lives of many injured survivors, as far back as the earliest versions of Reason 2 Die in 2008. Several years on, due to some legal issues, the Pills are back, albeit with a different name, Vitamins.

Using them temporarily restores a survivor's HP (after a short animation), instantly replacing missing health with an orange bar that decays over time.

They are one of the most commonly bought items from the In-Game Store, owing to how it provides a snappy alternative to the lengthy use time of the Medkit.

Background Story

Developed and produced by a small lab, they were intended to be cheap, effective and able to last long and were also originally designed to help those in less developed countries to have access to some form of medication. It is well known due to the company's usage of non-labelled bottles. Their overall versatility made them common in pharmacies and hospitals around the world. And so, after a few scavenging missions by the military, they are now extremely common. Their effect is probably due to the fact that all survivors chug the whole thing rather quickly. Without water. Sort of frightening, actually.

Tips

  • You can buy some Vitamins from the In-Game Store when your health is low, allowing you to continue fighting.
  • You can give another survivor Vitamins by right-clicking on them while holding it.
    • You could use this on people you defib, it was faster than them buying Vitamins themselves.
  • It was best to keep a safe distance from zombies when taking Vitamins, as the animation takes a second to work.
  • You might not have noticed that you are taking damage as you usually do when temporary health is still on, due to neither the red flash or damage audio playing. Look at your health bar once in a while.
  • This can be very useful on Bosses due to the short delay in comparison the Medkit.
