Potions (Skyrim)



Potions are consumable items found throughout the province of Skyrim and the rest of Tamriel. Many potions are leveled to accommodate the needs of the ever-growing Dragonborn.

There are two different subdivisions of potions.


 * Potions help by restoring health/magicka/stamina, fortifying an ability or the effect of an ability, or otherwise benefiting the Dragonborn.
 * Poisons, on the other hand, are applied to weapons and detrimentally affect the targeted NPC.

Potions can be purchased, found, or even created. This page deals strictly with potions and poisons found in the game environment and the inventories of NPCs, like vendors and so forth. All potions and poisons weigh 0.5 units.

For potions created through the use of the Alchemy skill, see this page.

Unique and Non-leveled Potions
The following table lists potions in Skyrim that are either unique or non-leveled.

Non-leveled but non-unique potions can be found in any number of ways or received from any number of NPCs, although some are found on the bodies of slain creatures. Just as all of the other potions, each of these weighs 0.5 units.
