There are different healing items in Fortnite Battle Royale but there is nothing like the chug jug. This is because this item gives you full health and a full shield. I mean what more can you get.
So if you want to know how you can use it effectively, then refer to the tips below:
They Don’t Stack:
This is something that you should keep in mind. The chug jug will not stack in your inventory. You can only keep one chug jug at a time. Now there are two things that you can do in a situation where you already have a chug jug and you see another one. Firstly, you can consume the one you already have if you are low on health or shield and then pick up the second one. Secondly, you should keep in mind that if you don’t get it then a nearby enemy might get it.

So, no matter how much health or shield you have got, consume the one you already have and pick up the second one. Also, you can go and drop your already picked up chug jug somewhere safe and then pick up the second chug jug, this way, if you consume the chug jug you already have, you can come back and pick up the one you dropped.

Take Cover:
One thing that you should definitely be doing is taking cover while you are consuming the chug jug. This is because it takes a lot of time to be consumed fully and you cannot expect to sit out in the open and drink the chug jug. If you do so, then instead of getting health and shield back, you might end up getting killed. Therefore, especially with the chug jug, you should be taking a cover otherwise drop the idea of consuming it in the open.

Another thing that you should keep in mind is that you should not build around you while you are consuming the chug jug. This is because a structure will definitely attract other players and they can easily destroy your structure in 5 to 10 seconds leaving you vulnerable. So instead, choose a place in a building, house or a bush and then consume it.
Use Before the End Circle:
You should be doing this. You should not take the chug jug with you at the end game in hopes of consuming it there. This is because of two reasons. The first is that it takes 15 seconds for a player to consume the chug jug. If you consume it while you are in the end game, even if you have taken cover, you may get attacked by an enemy. Secondly, enemies usually know the positions of each other in the end game so it will become hard for you to sit through an entire 15 seconds and drink the whole chug jug. You may be able to pull this off in the end game but it is always better to replenish your health and shield before things start to get intense.
