Acne potion


 * For the potion created in the Watchtower quest, see Potion (Ogre shaman).

The Potion is an almost useless item given to a player by asking the Apothecary in Varrock for a free sample, with the Apothecary choosing to give it to players roughly half the time and refusing other times. Before Varrock was updated, the potion was available by way of a respawn in the apothecary's building. It has only a few functions in RuneScape; it is a possible item requirement for the Forgettable Tale of a Drunken Dwarf quest, and its other 'use' is to be used on the civilians of Sophanem who are covered in spots, which results in various amusing conversations.

This item is usually kept by collectors who want to collect all sorts of various potions/brews in RuneScape, and as such, the Grand Exchange market price for this product is coins.

The potion does not take up any weight in your inventory, and so can be carried around without tax on your weight.

Imps also drop this item from time to time.

Although a free-to-play item, using anything to the potion would result in "You must be on a members' world to do that."

Trivia

 * If used on the tanner in Varrock, he will say "Er, thanks but no thanks".
 * For a bit of fun, you can try using this on most of the residents of the plague-stricken Sophanem, with varying responses from most of them.
 * If used on a stray dog, the dog will say "grr" and a message will appear on the chat screen saying: The dog does not seem to be interested in that.
 * At one point this item had well over a 4,000% price rise; most likely price manipulation.
