📋 About This Mod
This patch removes the +HP Effect from 5 items and now "NPCs use Items" should be compatile again with SCOURGE.
All other effects are still active.
NPCs Use Items is incompatible. This is due to something Bethesda changed in the game's code for Fallout 4 (not an issue in Skyrim apparently) and broke how NPC stats are recalculated when they use health-increasing items.
This generally applies to anything that makes NPCs increase their max health after they've spawned.

Removes MGEF "raises HP" from:
Bobrovs Best Moonshine
