== Removing side effects == Before sending a drug for packaging, all side effects should either be inactivated or, if that isn't possible, removed. Side effects can be inactivated by ensuring that the drug's final concentration is outside the side effect's spectrum of activity. However, as side effects often have a wide activity spectrum, the cure's effective and/or maximum concentration will typically overlap with at least one side effect's activity spectrum, leaving the drug with a side effect. In this case, the answer is to remove the side effect from the compound. Despite what some side effects would seem to indicate, all side effects can be removed from a drug. When a side effect is removed from a drug, it leaves behind an empty slot in the position it once held. This is particularly important when blending ingredients in a [[multimixer]], as effects can only be added to a base ingredient with empty slots. === Removable effects === [[File:BP SE-Remov.png|thumb|Example of a removable side effect]] Side effects that can be removed will show the conditions necessary to remove it when mousing-over the side effect. In the example shown at right, the Blurs Vision side effect is removable; the information panel titled Remove shows how to do so. Effectively, removing a removable side effect is the same as upgrading a cure that requires no catalysts: the concentration must be adjusted to the specified level, then the listed processing machine must be used. As with upgrading a cure, when the correct concentration is achieved to allow the side effect to be removed, a green check mark will appear next to the "conc." pre-requirement. In the example shown to the right, the concentration must first be lowered to between zero and three. Once this is done, passing the compound through an agglomerator will remove the side effect. === Non-removable effects === Mousing over a side effect may show a "Cannot Remove" tab rather than the removal requirements box. This means that the side effect cannot be deleted through normal processing methods. However, the side effect can still be removed by replacing it. You may mix your drug into another ingredient using the [[Multimixer]] (but you must choose the other ingredient as the base, and have the slot open for your cure), or you may swap the side effect onto another ingredient using the [[Centrifuge]]. If you have the [[Marketing and Malpractice]] DLC, you can also use the [[Booster Mixer]] to replace a side effect. To do so, a [[booster]] must be used. First, a second ingredient must be imported, and it must have a booster effect. Using a Shaker, the booster must be positioned in the same slot in that ingredient as the unremovable side effect in the base ingredient. Finally, the base and booster ingredients are fed into a [[Booster Mixer]], where the booster effect overrides and replaces the existing unremovable side effect.
