Rachel: "Addictol works both physically and psychologically to remove both the symptoms and the need. It's very effective. However, if the patient doesn't want to quit, he or she will just go back to using."

Rachel: "I can help you, but you're going to have to trust me."

Rachel: "You may feel uneasy for a few hours while the Addictol takes effect. But then you'll feel better than you ever have before."

- ↑ Fallout: The Roleplaying Game Rulebook p.166: "A powerful and effective pre-War medicine which cleanses the body of the effects of addiction and the withdrawal symptoms that accompany it. It doesn’t, however, prevent subsequent addictions, especially in the cases of long-term or habitual drug abuse. It can take some time to work, especially in severe cases, and tends to have a few side-effects, such as nausea and dizziness, while it is taking effect."
