Players can drink potions in Hogwarts Legacy by equipping it in their Tool Wheel and pressing the designated button shown on the bottom left corner of the screen.

On the other hand, the healing potion, Wiggenweld, does not require players to equip it as it is already a part of their inventory. PC users can use it by pressing ‘G,’ while PlayStation and Xbox players must hit the ‘Down’ button to remedy their health bar.

You can brew more potions in the Potions classroom or at the Room of Requirement as long as you have the necessary materials. Players can also purchase additional items at J. Pippin’s Potions in Hogsmeade.
