Editing Penoxycyline

Penoxycyline is a medical drug in RimWorld which was introduced in Alpha 16, and succeeds Malari-Block. Unlike its predecessor, Penoxycline blocks against 3 diseases: [[malaria]], [[sleeping Sickness|sleeping sickness]], and the dreaded [[plague]] - whereas Malari-block only blocked against malaria.

Like Malari-Block; Penoxycyline can either be purchased from traders, or crafted at a [[drug lab]] - but for a mere 3 [[neutroamine]] as opposed to the 5 which Malari-block took. However, in order to make Penoxycyline, you need to have [[research#PenoxyclineProduction|penoxycyline production]] researched, which in turn requires [[research#DrugProduction|drug production]], and Neutroamine has to either be purchased from traders, or found in cargo pods.

Penoxycline can be administered if one has one of the diseases it protects against, and doing so will boost the immunity by 35%; greatly improving their chances of survival.

-'''Penoxycyline''' is a [[drug]] that prevents users from catching a select following of [[disease]]s.
-== Acquisition ==
+Like Malari-Block; Penoxycyline can either be purchased from traders, or crafted at a [[drug lab]] - but for a mere 3 [[neutroamine]] as opposed to the 5 which Malari-block took. However, in order to make Penoxycyline, you need to have [[research#PenoxyclineProduction|penoxycyline production]] researched, which in turn requires [[research#DrugProduction|drug production]], and Neutroamine has to either be purchased from traders, or found in cargo pods.
-Penoxycyline can be crafted at a [[{{P|Production Facility 1}}]] once the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research project has been completed. Each dose require {{Required Resources}} and {{Ticks|{{P|Work To Make}}}} of work. Its [[Drug Synthesis Speed|synthesis speed]] is dependent on the [[Skills#Intellectual|Intellectual]] skill, and crafting experience is attributed to Intellectual. Note that [[Neutroamine]] can only be obtained from traders or found in cargo pods.
-It can also be [[Trade|bought]] from orbital, [[Outlander]], or [[Empire]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} traders, as well as Outlander and Empire [[faction base]]s.
+Penoxycline can be administered if one has one of the diseases it protects against, and doing so will boost the immunity by 35%; greatly improving their chances of survival.
-== Summary ==
-Penoxycyline completely prevents users from catching any of the following [[disease]]s while its "high" is active:
-* [[Malaria]]
-* [[Plague]]
-* [[Sleeping sickness]]
-Despite the wording of the description, it does nothing to prevent or treat [[infection]]s, or any other diseases or ailments besides the three above.
-When the [[Events#Disease (Type)|Disease event]] occurs, pawns that were protected from getting the disease by penoxycyline will be specifically noted as such. Penoxycyline does nothing to treat pre-existing diseases.
-Penoxycyline is not addictive and has no direct side effects. Penoxycyline ''can'' contribute to [[overdose]]s, increasing severity by 0.08-0.14 per dose consumed. This severity is not enough to cause any health effect on its own. However, it can cause minor overdoses when taken along with [[hard drugs]].
-== Analysis ==
-Diseases usually aren't a fatal problem by the time you can get a good supply of [[neutroamine]] and have the [[Research#{{P|Required Research}}|{{P|Required Research}}]] research. For an otherwise healthy colonist: a decent doctor, in a clean hospital, using [[herbal medicine]] or [[medicine]] is usually enough to treat the disease (so long as the colonist rests for the duration). However, this drug can still be helpful.
-Penoxycyline can reduce the time spend resting in bed, especially in tropical biomes where disease is prevalent and sleeping sickness is possible. If you don't want to use penoxycyline on every colonist, you can reserve it for your doctors. This prevents your doctors from getting sick when a disease outbreak occurs. It can also be used on sickly pawns for obvious reasons. If you can afford the neutroamine cost (and won't be using it for [[medicine]], [[wake-up]], or [[go-juice]]), then this drug is a net positive.
-While the in-game description says to ''"Take every five days"'', the effect actually lasts just over than a half-day longer. This gives pawns some leeway, in case colonists don't consume the pills promptly. Set a [[drug policy]] to tell the pawns to take one every 5 days and keep one in the inventory to take as soon as possible, or be cheap, set it to "6 days" and live dangerously.

-== Version history ==
-* [[Version/0.15.1279|0.15.1279]] - Added as '''Malari-block''', and only prevents [[Malaria]]
-* [[Version/0.16.1393|0.16.1393]] - Reworked. Renamed from '''Malari-block''' to '''Penoxycyline ''' and now prevents a wide variety of infections. Cost decreased from 5 [[neutroamine]] to 3.
-* [[Alpha 17]] - Cost is further reduced from 3 to 2 neutroamine. It also received an overhaul, such that instead of instantly boosting disease immunity to 61%, it now provides true immunity and cannot reactively increase immunity against a disease that is already in progress.
