📋 About This Mod
Description
-
[]Potions in Apothecary were changed so they restore over time rather than instantly.
[
]This isn't an issue on its own, but it renders potions useless when using faster-paced combat overhauls.[]This tweak restores values of health, magicka, and stamina potions to vanilla values.
[]To prevent potion spamming, use a mod like ZUPA.
FAQ
- []There is already another mod that does this!
- []This is too OP!
potions restore over time, but this doesn't work for fast-paced combat, so I made this.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid track record with 89 endorsements and over 46k downloads.
- Does exactly what it says—no bloat, just instant potions.
- ESP-FE means it won't eat up your plugin limit.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects Apothecary—if you don't use that mod, this is useless.
- Last updated in 2022, so it might not be compatible with newer Apothecary versions.
- Niche fix; if you actually like Apothecary's slower restoration, skip it.
For Skyrim players who use Apothecary but miss the vanilla instant potion chugging in combat. If you're a fast-paced fighter who can't wait for gradual healing, this is your patch. Skip if you prefer Apothecary's original design or don't use Apothecary at all.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure Apothecary is installed before adding this patch, and load it after Apothecary in your mod order.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the ESP-FE plugin—it'll sort itself correctly.
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, verify your Apothecary version matches the patch's compatibility (check the mod page for updates).
