Alcohol wipes are a drainable item used in first aid.

Usage

First Aid

For main article, see First Aid

Alcohol wipes are the easiest and most effective form of disinfectant in the game. They are used to remove infections from wounds, and are an integral part of the health system. The wipes are also drainable, providing five uses before the pack runs out. Like other disinfectants, using alcohol wipes will cause an increase in pain to the player, so combining them with painkillers is advised.

Tips

It is recommended to keep a form of disinfectant nearby at all times, as dangers lurk around every corner in Project Zomboid, and all wounds have the potential to become infected - making the alcohol wipes or other disinfectants some of the most commonly used medical equipment.
