Notes[]

Rad-X can be stacked. Each subsequent Rad-X that the Sole Survivor consumes will improve Radiation Resistance by a further 100 points.
Taking Rad-X does not count as an affinity action as it cannot cause addiction. The same does not apply to Med-X.
Survival mode effects:
- Rad-X causes thirst to increase with each dose taken.
- Like most chems, taking Rad-X will increase the risk of getting a disease. However, unlike RadAway and the mysterious serum, Rad-X does not cause the Suppressed Immunity debuff.
