Managing your radiation level is important while traveling throughout the wasteland. There are places that have deadly levels of radiation, so you'll need to understand how Rad-X and RadAway work. Taken together, you can survive almost anywhere if you monitor your situation. Neglected, radiation levels can reduce you to a melting puddle of goo. If you want to explore Glow, then you'll need plenty of both of these Drugs. If you find the Ruined Military Bunker, someone will be subject to massive doses of radiation just trying to get the lights on and the elevator working. Want to level up by hunting monsters like Aliens in the desert? Better go prepared. So here are the details...

About Rad-X

While RadAway is taken after exposure to reduce a character's current radiation level, Rad-X is taken prior to exposure as a preventative measure, to boost a character's Radiation Resistance.

NOTE: Rad-X has been changed. It used to stack, but now functions as other Drugs, with a normal duration of 30 minutes, and an on-screen timer.

You can buy the blueprint from Doc Jubilee in Shady Sands for 8000 Caps.

Can be found in Caves.
