}}'''Potions''' are consumable bottled substances designed to inflict [[effect]]s. They are created by [[brewing]] and, when [[drink|drunk]], give the player an effect for a certain amount of time. All potions are brewed from a '''water bottle''', which is considered a type of potion but has no effects.

== Obtaining ==
=== Mob loot ===
[[Witch]]es can drop potions of Healing, Fire Resistance, Swiftness, or Water Breathing if they die while drinking that potion.

A [[wandering trader]] can drop a potion of Invisibility if killed while drinking the potion.

=== Generated loot ===
Two Instant Health II potions can be found in the brewing stand on [[end ship]]s in [[end cities]].

One splash potion of [[Weakness]] can be found in a [[brewing stand]] inside an [[igloo]] basement.

{{IN|Bedrock}}, the cauldron in a [[swamp hut]] contains a random potion. There is a 25% chance for [[Healing]] or [[Poison]], 15% for [[Swiftness]], 10% for [[Slowness]], [[Weakness]], [[Strength]] or [[Water Breathing]], and 5% for [[Fire Resistance]].
{{LootChestItem|potion-of-regeneration,potion-of-swiftness,potion-of-water-breathing,potion-of-healing,potion-of-strength}}

=== Brewing ===
{{main|Brewing}}

Almost all potions are obtained by [[brewing]].

The potion of Luck{{only|java|short=1}} and the potion of Decay{{only|bedrock|short=1}} cannot be brewed. They can be obtained via commands, and are also available in the [[Creative inventory]] in their respective versions.

=== Bartering ===
When given a [[gold ingot]], [[piglin]]s have a {{frac|10|459}} (2.18%) chance to [[barter]] a water bottle, or a {{frac|8|459}} (1.74%) chance to barter a potion of Fire Resistance.

=== Fishing ===
[[Potion#Base potions|Water bottles]] can be [[fishing|fished]] up as junk items.

== Usage ==
Potions are used by pressing and holding {{control|use}} with the potion bottle in hand, as with all consumable items. When consumed, they bestow the corresponding [[status effect]] upon the player and return a [[glass bottle]].

Drinking a potion while already under the effects of the same potion does not add onto the effect's duration, but simply resets it. A potion effect does not "downgrade" if a lower level is activated. For example, if a [[player]] has [[Regeneration]] II, drinking a regular potion of Regeneration does not have any effect.

Potions can only be put into [[cauldron]]s {{in|BE}}.

=== Modifiers ===
{{main|Brewing}}

Potions can be modified in five ways.
# Brewing [[glowstone dust]] into certain potions enhances their level of effect.
# Adding [[redstone]] extends the duration of the effect.
# Brewing [[gunpowder]] into a potion makes it into a splash potion (area effect).
# Adding [[dragon's breath]] to a splash potion creates a [[lingering potion]] (area effect that lingers on the ground).
# Brewing a [[fermented spider eye]] into specific potions modifies their effect, usually inverting it, which is referred to as "corruption".
# Weakness potions can also be brewed without the use of nether wart, placing water then a fermented spider eye will brew a potion of weakness.

The modifications of enhancement and extension are mutually exclusive.

Enhancing most potions trades some of its duration for a bigger effect. For example, the base Regeneration works for 44 seconds whereas Regeneration II lasts for only 22 seconds but heals more per tick during that time.

Extending a potion generally makes it last {{frac|8|3}} as long as its base potion, so a duration of 3 minutes becomes 8 minutes.

==== Corruption ====
The usual result of corruption is to invert the potion's effect (for example [[Speed|Swiftness]] becomes [[Slowness]]). Interestingly, corrupting [[Poison]] (continuous damage effect) creates a Potion of [[Instant Damage|Harming]], an instant damage effect, instead of the continuous healing effect (regeneration) one would normally expect. Corrupting a Potion of [[Night Vision]] turns it into a Potion of [[Invisibility]] rather than an inverse effect that might be something like [[Blindness]].

Corrupting an extended or enhanced potion results in a corrupted potion with the same modifier, if it is supported by the corrupted effect. All of the "corrupted" potions except Harming can be extended, but it is the only one that can be enhanced. {{IN|bedrock}}, the corruption of Healing II or Poison II potions results in a potion of Harming I.

=== Base potions ===
Base potions are potions that have no effect when the player drinks them, but are necessary as the basis for other potions.

=== Undead mobs ===
The effects given by potions of Healing and Harming are reversed on [[undead]] mobs. Potions of Healing deal damage, and Harming heals them. In addition, undead mobs are not affected by Poison or Regeneration.

{{IN|bedrock}}, hitting an undead mob with a Regeneration Potion always registers as Regeneration I, no matter the level of the used potion.

=== Mud conversion ===
Using a water bottle, splash water bottle, or lingering water bottle on [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], or [[rooted dirt]] converts it into [[mud]], returning a [[glass bottle]] with it. This process can be automated with a [[dispenser]].

=== Filling cauldrons with potions ===
{{IN|Bedrock}}, using a potion bottle on a [[cauldron]] empties the potion into it and fills the cauldron by {{frac|1|3}} of its capacity. Using a glass bottle on a cauldron filled with a potion drains it by {{frac|1|3}} and fills the bottle. A single cauldron can store up to three potions of the same type. Different potions cannot be combined in a cauldron, nor can they be mixed with any other substance. [[Arrow]]s can be also [[Tipped Arrow|tipped]] when used on a cauldron containing potion. A single portion of potion can tip 16 arrows at once, while a full cauldron can tip a stack of arrows at once.

== Custom effects ==
{{Main|Data component format#potion contents}}
{{IN|java}}, potions can also be obtained with any status effect using {{cmd|give}} and the <code>potion_contents</code> data component.

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
*When a player drinks two potions by quickly switching to another potion immediately after drinking one, the second drinking animation is not shown.{{verify|type=current|Still in recent versions?}}
*A potion of [[Poison]] II lasts for 22.5 seconds, but it is displayed as 22 seconds because the [[item]] hover display shows rounded-down integer values.
*The "Local Brewery" [[advancement]] uses the uncraftable potion texture for its icon.

== Unused potions ==
''[[Bedrock Edition]]'' has [[History of textures/Unused textures#Unused potions|unused potion textures]] for several [[effect]]s, along with their [[Splash Potion#Unused splash potions|splash variants]]. These effects are: [[Absorption]], [[Blindness]], [[Haste]], [[Health Boost]], [[Hunger]], [[Mining Fatigue]], [[Nausea]], [[Resistance]], [[Saturation]], and [[Levitation]], as well as the [[Luck]] potion textures also present in ''[[Java Edition]]''. These unused textures were added along with the other potion textures in [[Pocket Edition v0.12.1 alpha]], except for the potion of Levitation, which was added in [[Pocket Edition 1.0.0]]. The textures were changed along with the other potion textures during the [[texture update]] in [[Bedrock Edition 1.10.0]]. Strangely, the potion of levitation texture is a duplicate of the splash potion of levitation texture.
