Instructions for use: Simply touch, pick up, or walk over Medkit. Doing so will heal most types of injuries, including bullet wounds, zombie slashes, antlion gouges, grenade shrapnel, and even self-inflicted damage caused by careless falls off ledges and catwalks (Note: falls from large bridges can be fatal!) Our patented technology will even remove pesky bloodstains from your clothing and body... instantly!
Talk to your doctor before using Medkit. Side-effects may include blurred vision and inflated sense of invulnerability. This Medkit is also Eco-Friendly and will completely and instantly biodegrade upon use.
