 Item number SCP-500 Object Class Safe Special Containment Procedures SCP-500 must be stored in a cool and dry place away from bright light. SCP-500 is only allowed to be accessed by personnel with level 4 security clearance to prevent misapplication. Description SCP-500 is a small plastic can which at the time of writing contains 47 red pills. One pill, one taken orally, effectively cures the subject of all diseases within two hours, exact time depending on the severity and amount of the subject's conditions. Despite extensive trials, all attempts at synthesizing more of what is thought to be the active ingredient of the pills have been unsuccessful. Note from Dr. Klein. SCP personnel below level 3 are now banned from handling SCP-500. This is not to be used to cure a hangover. Get aids and then ask permission. Request 500-1774K Dr. 500-0022F has requested one SCP-500 pill for testing with SCP-38. Request has been approved. Request 500-1862B Dr. Gears has requested one SCP-500 pill for testing in SCP-914.

SCP-500 was tested on Subject 409-D5 who was exposed to the effects of SCP-409. Complete recovery accomplished. See Addendum 409-1 Number of pills is 56 at the time of writing. Dr. 500-0021D Addendum 504 Request 51774K approved. Five pills have been used in experimentation with SCP-38. It has been determined that SCP-38 is capable of duplicating SCP-500. However, the success of the duplicated pills is limited. The duplicated pills are only effective in curing the subject 30% of the time with chance of successful healing dropping as time since cloned increases. In 60% of the cases where the infection is permanent, symptoms of infection remain, though further infestation is neutralized. Repeated dosing with SCP-38 cloned pills is recommended for all personnel suffering from incurable conditions as supply of SCP-500 remains extremely limited. All five used samples of SCP-500 were returned. Number of pills is 56 at the time of writing. Addendum 505 During experiments with SCP-38, one pill was stolen by personnel to reportedly, quote, cure a hangover, end quote.
