Stolen Medicine is a mission item for a Cyberpunk 2077 Gig you can complete in the Watson, Kabuki area. The Gig is named Backs Against The Wall, and your goal is to find, retrieve, and deposit the Stolen Medicine in a Drop Point.

Look for this Gig close to the Pinewood St South fast travel point in the southeastern corner of Watson. You can see it on my map below, and you may remember that it’s the same area where we have completed the Welcome To America, Comrade Gig, and Monster Hunt Gig.

The Starting Location of the Backs Against The Wall in Cyberpunk 2077

When you get close to this location (aka Indicated Residence), Regina will send you a small briefing on what you have to do. Again, you’ll have to search within an area, find the Stolen Medicine, and drop it at a specific Drop Point.

Where To Find Stolen Medicine in Cyberpunk 2077

The Stolen Medicine is on the last floor of a demolished building. The said building and its entrance are marked by a graffiti drawing you can read. It says Broken as you can see in my picture below.

The good thing about this mission is that this is not a hostile area, meaning that there is not a single enemy inside the building. However, this doesn’t mean you should simply go to the last floor and get the medicine. No.

Instead, inspect every room on all floors because you can get an impressive number of valuable items. And now let’s see how you can reach the last floor. Once you enter the first floor, you will eventually find a locked door that requires 7 Technical Ability points. You don’t have them, right?

No worries, because you can advance through the window on the left side while facing the said door. Jump through, and then jump again to reach the balcony you see in my picture below.

Now, continue to explore every room on the other side of the locked door. It is imperative to get everything because this location is really rich. Then, look for a ramp that goes through the ceiling and looks like the one in my screenshot.

Indicated Residence Second Floor Path up

Once you go up, you’ll see a corridor (left side) and more rooms (right side). First, inspect the rooms, then open the door at the end of the corridor. Here, you’ll find a very interesting NPC named Corporal Hare or Cpl. Hare.

Talk to him, but do know that Cpl Hare is a bit crazy, and by that, I mean that you won’t be able to reason with this guy. The laptop behind him also contains some data that kinda confirms that Hare is a lost soul. So basically, no matter how you try to approach William Hare, the shotgun in his hand will not stop firing some bullets.

It can be towards you or his head, depending on how you approach him. But he won’t live to see another day. Once you deal with him, you’ll find the Stolen Medicine inside the locker, on the right side, as you enter Hare’s room.

After you get the Stolen Medicine, you must return to the street and follow the path on your minimap to get to the Drop Point. Place it inside, and the Gig is done.

Have Something To Add? Do It Here:

  1. You can talk him down to avoid the fight, though im not sure if there is more than one. Unfortunately he ends up shooting himself.

  2. Hey this quest is bugged for me, I’ve reloaded twice and still bugged..
    I peacefully talked to him and got the stolen medicine, the game told me that I took the medicine, but I didn’t see it anywhere in my inventory! When I’m going to the deposit box, and there’s prompt press F to deposit, pressing f and it doesn’t deposit the meds, it’ll open the Sell menu and there’s no button to deposit the meds, and I can’t find the meds in inventory too.. Completely stuck in depositing meds

      1. Ah I think I know what’s the problem, if I looked at the deposit box screen and press f, it’ll opened the Sell menu and thus can’t deposit or complete the quest. But if I looked at the deposit machine and not looking down to the deposit screen and holding f for a while, it’ll successfully deposit the meds!
