How to Craft Medicine in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
To get medicine in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you’ll first need to receive a DIY recipe to craft it. The game triggers the event wherein you can receive the DIY if you speak to a resident on your island after you get stung.
You can speak to one of the two residents who moved onto your island at the early stages of your campaign once you get stung. Doing so will trigger a dialogue with them, after which you’ll receive the DIY recipe for medicine.
Once you’ve got the DIY recipe, you’ll need to collect the required items, which are 3 clumps of weed and 1 wasp nest. Weed is virtually everywhere on your island, so getting clumps of it is pretty much a piece of cake.
However, the real test comes from getting a wasp nest, as you’ll need to shake trees on your island to get your hands on it. Wasps randomly fall from trees, so you must be careful in that regard or, better yet, learn to catch them with a net and avoid being stung here.
Once you have the required items in the medicine DIY recipe, hit one of the workbenches on your island and craft the medicine thereon. And that’s all there is to crafting medicine in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
However, if crafting it comes off as a strenuous process, you’re better off buying it from the Nook’s Cranny, provided you’ve crafted it before. Simply walk into the equipment cabinet off the height of the store. You’ll need some Bells, 400B precisely, to purchase the medicine and heal your character. Here’s how to get bells in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
How to Use Medicine in Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Now that you’ve learned how to get medicine in Animal Crossing, the next line of action is to use it, which is equally an easy thing to do. Simply open your pockets and select medicine with the A button. Next, select the Use option to consume the medicine, and you’ll get healed immediately.
Keep in mind that you can only use medicine once in the game; therefore, you’ll need to craft or buy another from the Nook’s Cranny if you ever get attacked again.
Final Notes
And that’s how to get medicine in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Now, you can heal your character immediately when they get stung by wasps. But the wiser thing to do when dealing with these insects is to have a net in hand and catch them with it when shaking or cutting down a tree.
