Healing in Borderlands is accomplished in several ways. Characters can be healed slowly by equipping health regenerating shields or certain class mods. Rapid healing can also be achieved by using certain class specific abilities or transfusion grenade mods. A character will not heal over time without some type of intervention.

Healing Kits and Insta-Health Vials are the two types of consumable item that can also be used to regain health. Healing Kits provide healing over time, while Insta-Health Vials provide an almost instantaneous health regain. Each type comes in multiple levels of potency.

Healing Kit

Healing kits are available for purchase from Medical Vending Machines and are occasionally found in lockers. Healing kits can be carried in your storage deck (aka backpack) and provide the character with a means to heal during and after combat. Healing kits provide X amount of healing over 10 seconds, where X is dependent upon the level of the healing kit.

Healing Kit	Amount regained over 10 sec	Price	Appearance
Minor Healing Kit	60	$140	Bottle of "Doctor Zed's Horse Pills"
Light Healing Kit	100	$280	Small brown bottle of "Dr. Zed's Bullet Salve"
Healing Kit	180	$420	Small box of "Dr. Zed's Body Spackle"
Greater Healing Kit	300	$560	Large brown bottle of "Dr. Zed's Bullet Salve"
Super Healing Kit	500	$700	Large box of "Dr. Zed's Body Spackle"

Insta-Health

Insta-Health Vials are available for purchase from Medical Vending Machines. They can also be dropped by a slain enemy or found in trash/skag piles. Insta-Health Vials cannot be carried in your storage deck. They can only be used immediately, whether when purchased or when looted. If the character is at full health then the vial can not be picked up.

Minor Insta-Health Vial	20	$105	Vial with red fluid
Light Insta-Health Vial	40	$210	Vial with orange fluid

Trivia

• T.K. Baha drinks from a Light Healing Kit he holds in his right hand.
• Insta-Health vials may have been intended to be an all-around health item, rather than having two separate types of health recovery. In the Zombie Island of Dr. Ned DLC, one of the Medical Vendor quotes tells the player to buy an Insta-Health rather than a Healing Kit for "when the shield inevitably goes down", implying that at one point they could be carried for such an emergency.
