Notes

• You cannot have more than 5 health potions in your inventory at a time.
• Health Potion cannot be used at full health.
• You can use multiple Health Potions while you have one active which will queue them up to be used after the previous completes (maximum 5 stacks).
• Using a Health Potion, as with all other activated items (with the exception of Entropy), does not interrupt channelling. This is particularly useful if jungling as Fiddlesticks, as it will not interrupt Drain. It also won't interrupt Recall.
• Health Potion is one of the cheapest items in League of Legends at 50 gold.
• Using a Health Potion can counter the damage from damage over time spells such as Mordekaiser's Children of the Grave or Ignite (keeping in mind, of course, the reduced effectiveness from Ignite's effect).
• When used Health Potion gives an additional 10 health regen/second for 15 seconds, which can be improved by Spirit Visage, resulting in 12 health regen/second or a total amount of 180 health restored (as compared to 150).
• If you're having trouble sustaining in lane, usually either top or mid as AD, do not rush Vampiric Scepter - at 900 and only 10% lifesteal, given low (sub 150) total AD values, you usually won't be able to sustain enough from trading and lane minions. Note that 900 is 18 health potions - or 2700 total health from regen. Consider either Doran's Blades or Health Potions.

Strategy

• It is a very useful item for nearly every champion early game due to its affordability but loses its effectiveness as champions' levels increase. The maximum health will be too substantial for it to be significant and any damage received would be too great.
• It used to be highly recommended to buy multiple Health Potions when jungling as it provided increased early-game survivability. The % health gain from jungling creeps reduces their utility.

Trivia

• During seasonal events, the Health Potion has been replaced by seasonal items with the same effect, but different names/pictures.
  • The Eggnog Health Potion was a seasonal item that replaced the Health Potion during the 2009, 2010, and 2011 Snowdown Showdown celebrations.
  • The Candy Corn was a seasonal item that replaced the Health Potion during the 2010 and 2011 Harrowing events.
  • The Phoenix Bun was another seasonal item that replaced the Health Potion during the Lunar Revel celebration.
