Medicaments
In DayZ: Standalone, medicaments are very important. They are used to heal you and others. Luckily, finding them is very easy. It's enough to visit hospital or other buildings listed in the Chapter 4. Below you can find a list of the most important items and way of application.| Icon | Name | Description and application |
 | First aid kit | Aid kit is an item which takes 4 slots in equipment and let you keep up to 6 medicaments inside. It also makes easier to find other medicaments. |
 | Blood bag | Blood bag is very important. It allows you to take blood from others for transfusion. When you combine it with the start kit, it's almost complete set for transfusion. You should have a supply of them in equipment. |
 | IV start kit | Start kit is required for making complete sets for transfusion and applying saline. You should have at least two of it in your equipment. |
 | Defibrillator | Defibrillator serves to resuscitate the unconscious players and requires on 9V battery to work. Although it takes 4 slots, it's worth to be carrying around. |
 | Saline bag | Saline bag combined with the start kit makes a set. When you give it to the player who lose blood, it heals him a bit. You should carry at least one of those. |
 | Blood test kit | As the name indicates, it allows you to check the blood group. It's very important for making a transfusion. You should check your blood group after each respawn, as it changes. |
 | Bandage | Bandage are used for healing purposes, when bleeding status appears. Medical bandage may be used 4 times, while military bandage only once. |
 | Charcoal tabs | Charcoal tabs will let you get rid of food poisoning after eating rotten fruits and vegetables. |
| Morphine auto-injector | It's very important medicament used mainly when you fracture something. Fractures happen when you fall from something high or in shootouts. You should have at least one of these. |
Blood transfusion
What is it for?
Transfusion (or applying the saline) is used to heal you or other players. You can't transfuse your own blood or transfuse to you someone else's on your own. It means that you need a partner. When the bag with blood is applied, blood bar is renewed. Saline regenerates only 1/10 of that.Applying of those liquids is very important, because when you lose blood, you start to see world in shades of gray (it's a sign, that you'll lose conscious soon and then only defibrillation will help you). That's why you should always have those medicaments with you.
Blood groups
But before you start transfusion, you need to make sure that blood groups match. This problem doesn't appear when you apply saline. There are real blood groups in this game, so the best donor is player with 0-, while the best receiver the one having AB+. It means that 0- blood can be given to everyone, while player with AB+ can get blood from everyone. If you give not the proper blood group, you kill the receiver. That's why checking the blood group is so important.Below you can find a table with matching of various blood groups. YES means that there is a match, while NO lack of it. Horizontally you can see the donor blood, vertically the receiver blood.
