So, the chiurgeon Alchemist archetype gets to add breath of life to their formula book at 10th level. This is all fine and well but, if the alchemist is more than a 5' step from where the ally falls, it doesn't do him any good since his extracts all act like potions and thus require a full-round action to administer.

Is there any way for a chiurgeon to administer potions to allies as at least a standard action, like casting a spell would be? A feat, trait, anything?


If you can find some way to cast Unseen Servant (wand?) or if you get a familiar (via Arcane Eldritch Heritage?), they could do it for you.

You can take Touch Injection (2nd lvl formulae) which lets you absorb an extract/potion/poison from a container into your body and you deliver it as a touch attack. The duration you can hold the potion/extract/poison is 1hr/lvl
