Behind the scenes[]

The Digestive Medicine is a healing item that appears in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, which is used in the Survival Viewer's Cure menu. The player has limited quantities at the start of the game, but can procure more either via ready-made variants in certain locations, or by creating some with the Russian False Mango.

The Intestinal Medicine appears in Metal Gear Survive, serving a similar purpose to that of the Digestive Medicine. Its weight is 0.2 kg and it can be crafted by mixing together one Tarragon and two sets of Alcohol, plus 10 KUB. Five of them were issued as an administrator's gift to the player upon joining the game's open beta, alongside the other four healing items. Unlike the daily login bonuses, the administrator's gift could be kept in the supply box indefinitely.
