Fallout: New Vegas consumables

This page lists all consumables in Fallout: New Vegas.

General Information[]

Consumables are items accessed through the "Aid" section of a player's Pip-Boy menu. The effectiveness of any consumable in Fallout: New Vegas is directly dependent on a character's Survival skill for general effectiveness and Medicine skill for healing. The higher the skill level, the greater the beneficial properties. A skill maxed out at 100 points can provide up to three times the benefits that a consumable would normally provide. Using an identical item when a previous one is still active will add to the duration remaining. However, using different items simultaneously will, with few exceptions, stack the effects of all items consumed.
