Elixirs

From bg3.wiki

Similar to Potions, Elixirs can apply a variety of beneficial effects. Unlike Potions, the effects of an Elixir last until either taking a long rest or drinking another Elixir. Many Elixirs can be created with Alchemy.

Elixir will cancel any previous Elixir effects. Some Potions in the game are called Elixirs but function as regular potions. These are listed on the Potions page instead.

Other activities can cause elixir benefits to end, including:

Unique Elixirs

These elixirs cannot be crafted and are not sold by normal merchants. They can only be obtained by giving blood samples to Araj Oblodra, and each character can only do this once, so the number available is limited.
