Aging Potion
This causes the drinker to become older. Whether this is in body only, or in body and mind, isn't clear. It is clear, however, that the more of the potion is drunk, the larger the aging which occurs. The effects of this potion are most likely to be temporary.
Amortentia
The most powerful Love Potion in the world, it causes a powerful infatuation or obsession in the drinker. It has a distinctive mother-of-pearl sheen, and steam rises from it in characteristic spirals.
Anti-Poison Potion
This is an antidote to a variety of poisons. The Bezoar is used to combat most poisons, but not all of them.
Antidotes
Different antidotes exist for different effects. Known antidotes exist for Doxy bites, petrification, and of course poisons.
Babbling Beverage
Causes the drinker to babble nonsense.
Boil-Cure Potion
Ingredients: Dried nettles, Crushed snake fangs, Stewed horned slugs and Porcupine quills. Cures boils. Little else is known about this, except that it is an elementary potion taught to first years.
Blood-Replenishing Potion
Tops up the blood levels of the drinker after injury.
Bruise Removal Paste
This is a thick yellow paste, guaranteed to remove any bruise within an hour. It was invented by Fred and George Weasley, who found that as they had to test most of their joke shop products on themselves, a decent bruise remover was a necessity.
Burn-Healing Paste
Not exactly a potion, but a thick orange paste used to heal burns. Madam Pomfrey uses it on Cedric Diggory after the first task of the Triwizard Tournament.
Confusing Concoction
Causes confusion in the drinker.
Deflating Draught
Causes anything swollen by magical means to shrink back to normal size. This is the opposite to a Swelling Solution, and acts as an antidote to it.
Doxycide
This a black solution used to spray Doxies. It renders them unconscious for a time.
Draught of Living Death
Ingredients: Wormwood, Asphodel ,Sopophorus Bean and Valerian Roots . This is an extremely powerful sleeping potion. Snape thought Harry should have read up on it in Magical Drafts and Potions before arriving for his first year at Hogwarts.
Draught of Peace
Ingredients: Powdered moonstone and Syrup of hellebore. Calms anxiety and soothes agitation.
Dreamless Sleep Potion
A medicinal potion, used to induce dreamless sleep in the drinker and aid recuperation.
Emerald Green Potion
A mystery potion that Lord Voldemort used to protect his locket Horcrux. It induces fear and delirium in the drinker, and is almost certainly highly poisonous. It has a highly debilitating effect on the drinker and will cause death if left untreated.
Elixir to Induce Euphoria
A sunshine-yellow potion and creates a feeling of euphoria in the drinker. Side-effects of excessive singing and nose-tweaking can occur on occasions, although adding a sprig of peppermint should help to counterbalance these.
Elixir of Life
This is produced by the Philosopher’s Stone, and grants the drinker immortal life for as long as they keep on drinking it.
Everlasting Elixirs
Unknown, but presumably the effect is everlasting.
Exploding Potion
Ingredients: Erumpent fluid. The erumpent produces a remarkable fluid in its horn which causes anything it is injected with to explode. This is used in potion-making to produce an exploding potion.
Felix Felicis
Lady luck in liquid form. Felix Felicis makes the drinker lucky for a period of time, dependent on how much is drunk, during which time everything they attempt will succeed. It must be used sparingly, however, because if taken in excess it causes giddiness, recklessness and dangerous overconfidence. It is highly toxic in large quantities, and is also a banned substance in all organised competitions.
Forgetfulness Potion
Causes the drinker to become forgetful.
Hair-Raising Potion
Ingredients: Rat tails. Effect unknown.
Hiccoughing Solution
Causes the drinker to hiccough.
