The Restoration Potion is a recovery potion that can be found in Shadow Chests in the Underworld. When used, it restores 90 health and inflicts Potion Sickness for only 45 seconds (rather than the usual 60 of health-restoring potions). The duration of Potion Sickness can be reduced to 33.75 seconds via the Philosopher's Stone or Charm of Myths.
Despite its appearance, the Restoration Potion is not created by upgrading a Lesser Restoration Potion.

Tips
- The Restoration Potion has a confusing place among the tiers of healing potions. Compared to the Healing Potion, it gives almost as much health with a shorter cooldown. Compared to the Honeyfin, it gives ¾ the healing with ¾ the cooldown. Either way, there is also health regeneration during the cooldown to consider.
- Mathematically, the Restoration Potion is the best pre-Hardmode health potion, as its health-to-cooldown ratio is tied with the Honeyfin's, barely being better via receiving health more often.
Trivia
- Although there are both Greater Healing Potions and Greater Mana Potions, there is not an equivalent "Greater Restoration Potion". The same goes for Super Healing Potions and Super Mana Potions.
- All Lesser Restoration Potions were replaced with Restoration Potions in 1.4.0.1.
