Illness cures not working
My Sim is sick and I purchased medicine off the computer but nothing happened after she drank it. No cure, no effect. I bought a second medicine and same thing. I tried drinking green tea and orange ...

Well, I knew about the tea but having the tea maker was too much of a hassle, didn't know about OJ though. I'll have to try that.
Can't hurt! 😇
Of course, more than likely the OJ will cost a little $. What I'll likely do is use the Nap first. If they're still sick after that, use the OJ. If THAT doesn't work, the medicine. OJ is likely cheaper than medication.
@Psychotps, I never noticed if OJ cost any money for my Sims or not. 🤔 If it does it is just a few Simoleons, so I ignore it. It is a lot cheaper than the medicine. To tell you the truth, since all my illnesses are cured with (at the most) the 3rd try to cure them, save the money and just have them drink OJ for the 3rd try, or else take another nap! (Now if for some reason you ever get an illness that isn't cured in 3 tries, I would then try the medicine! But I doubt that will ever happen! 😉
Orange juice is free if you get it from the Quick Meal menu on a refrigerator.
I actually never tried it until this afternoon. Elsa got a cold (ironic huh? My Elsa sim had that cute sneeze just like in the short film.)
It didn't seem to last as long as the nap. After the OJ, I ended up also having to give her two naps also. I'll have to test it again. I'm curious to see how long the "+" thing lasts with each method, wondering if its different.
@Sketch793, I already mentioned that orange juice doesn't cost anything for our Sims several posts above.
@Psychotpsgood idea!:ealight_bulk:🙂 I never have tested the curative value of each cure method. This also might differ if there are variable strengths or durations to the illnesses.
Very cute how your Elsa Sim got a "cold"! 😃❤️
- @PugLove888 Looks like OJ gives your sim the "Combatting Cold" buff for one hour. Nap gives it for three. Haven't tried it with anything else.
@Psychotps Thanks! That is good to know! 🙂 Can you stack the "combatting cold" treatments of both to get 4 hours?🤔
- @PugLove888 Wow, interesting idea. I didn't at the time, I waited until the first one ran out because I wanted to see a fresh count. What was the third option? Tea? I'll see if I can try that one as well today.
