All soldiers get morphine autoinjectors. Morphine will eliminate pain, but not permanently, it messes with your heart rate and blood pressure, and it stays in your system for a long time. This may complicate your treatment or health in future engagements. If you are not careful with morphine, you can give yourself a heart attack.

Only use morphine without a medic's permission if you are actively engaging an enemy and pain is making you combat ineffective.
