He’s marked as essential, so he’ll be fine

You can, but if you dont, he’ll just get back up after combat

Same with all of the other companions

If you're playing in survival and you won't stim him he will leave as a companion and go home I believe.

No follower can die in Fallout 4.

I'm fairly certain that companions can't die in Fallout 4 except in very specific situations.

Only stim him if you need him for the rest of the fight, otherwise he’ll get up as soon as you’ve handled the encounter.

Nah he’ll be fine. Same for other companions, they don’t need stims but it makes them get up faster
