Chelating Tablets

Medicines1x2 (2 Slots)

Frostline-era tablets that treat Heavy Metal Poisoning and can purify contaminated water.

They are the cure for stage 3 Heavy Metal Poisoning (it drops back to stage 2) and can also be used on a water container to purify it. Skip them if you already have high immunity or vitamins active, since they slow recovery. The 1.29 patch notes list a fix for the tablets wrongly curing wound infection and influenza.
