* In the ''Manga/GunslingerGirl'' fanfic ''And the Adventure Continues'', Jethro does a AfterActionPatchup on his cyborg Monty in the back of a Russian cargo plane, and gets the loadmaster to [[VodkaDrunkenski reluctantly donate his vodka]] to sterilize the instruments. For appearances Monty drinks from the bottle as well (she can't feel pain, but the Russians don't know that).

Not to be confused with BoozeBasedBuff, where the alcohol grants abilities and is basically a power up. If the alcohol instantly remedies a characters ailments, it's more HealthFood than this trope. Sub-trope of BizarreBeverageUse.

In fiction, no one ever has TCP antiseptic... but everyone has vodka. This trope occurs when a character pours liquor on a wound to disinfect it, or drinks alcohol as an anesthetic. Note that in the latter case this trope would only occur when the character is using alcohol specifically as a painkiller right before [[AfterActionPatchUp having a wound stitched up]] or a [[WeHaveToGetTheBulletOut bullet extracted]] etc, and not when a character is just generally [[DrowningMySorrows self-medicating with alcohol.]]
