How to use this item
Wake an unconscious player
Use the Epinephrine Auto-Injector on an unconscious survivor to help wake them up. It will not work on dead players, and it will not save someone who is still below the minimum blood threshold for consciousness.
- Check that the player is unconscious, not dead.
- Stop active bleeding if possible.
- Use the Epinephrine Auto-Injector on the unconscious player.
- Continue treatment after they wake up.
Use after blood loss carefully
If a player is unconscious from blood loss, Epinephrine may not wake them until they are above the minimum blood threshold. Use Saline or an IV Blood Bag first if needed.
- Stop bleeding first.
- Use Saline or compatible IV Blood if the player has severe blood loss.
- Use Epinephrine once they can be revived.
- Keep monitoring blood and health after they wake up.
Use for stamina
Epinephrine also removes stamina consumption for one minute, making it useful for emergency movement, escape, or repositioning.
