* {{name|pluralcaps}} can be a useful zero-weight consumable to keep on hand throughout the game for its healing and protection vs. cold and poison.
* Players may find the light-producing effect to be of less benefit due to the small radius that is exceeded by even early-game light sources.
* Its healing is equivalent to that of a {{favilink|salve injector}} for mutants. For [[True Kin]], however, a salve injector's healing effect is stronger.
