7 Days to Die requires the players to collect various resources, maintain their health, and fight against the zombies to survive. However, often, they may become sick during the game, particularly in the early stages, owing to infections or dysentery.

These debuffs may be extremely difficult for players in the early game, impeding their development. Diseases such as dysentery must be treated as quickly as possible because these debuffs can cause a variety of challenges, including fatigue and dehydration.

Dysentery In 7 Days To Die, Explained

Dysentery is primarily induced by consuming contaminated food or water such as murky water, old sham sandwiches, and raw meat. Although consuming these items does not guarantee that the players will get dysentery, there's a probability that they might. However, dysentery, like all other debuffs in the game, is easily treatable with drugs or specific items.

The dysentery debuff lasts 60 minutes in-game time. Although dysentery will initially have little effect on the player's health, it will gradually decrease the player's hunger and hydration every second by 0.5 and 1.5, respectively. This can cause a number of issues for the player, including dehydration, hunger, and death.
