The Box of Adhesive Bandages is a sealed carton of small sticky plasters. It opens into twenty four adhesive bandages.

A full box is a good find for any survivor early in the game. Adhesive bandages cover small scratches and cuts, and a box holds plenty of them. The box is also a tidy way to store a stock. It weighs a little less than the loose bandages inside.

The box is found as loot, mostly in survivor safehouses and medical buildings. The Doctor is the best occupation for bandages. It starts with the most First Aid skill. The Nurse and the Park Ranger also start with some First Aid skill.

How to Use Box of Adhesive Bandages


A double click on the box opens it. The Unpack Box of 24 Adhesive Bandages recipe does the same from the crafting menu. It turns the box into twenty four adhesive bandages.

Each adhesive bandage sits under the Bandage option on the health panel. It covers a small wound for a short while and is used up when it comes off. A cloth Bandage holds a wound far longer and suits deeper cuts.

Loose adhesive bandages can go back into a box. The Pack Items in Box recipe turns twenty four of them into a new box. Packing them keeps a large stock in one slot and saves a little weight.

Locations


Survivor safehouses are the best place to look. Their freezers hold a box fairly often, and their medicine cabinets and counters now and then. Dentists, clinics and hospital storage rooms hold one only rarely. Pharmacy counters, medical storage rooms and kennel counters are similar. Office counters, hospital desks and coroner desks turn one up very rarely. Overall the box is an uncommon find, while loose adhesive bandages are everywhere.
