Antidote (item)



The Antidote, also called Antedot, Pure Potion and Pure, is an item that has appeared in every game in the series. It cures the Poison status effect. It normally costs little gil and can be acquired fairly early in the game, so the player would do well to stock up in case they are going someplace where the enemies like to inflict Poison often.

Final Fantasy
The Antidote (known as PURE in the NES version) can be bought in every store, except for Melmond, and costs 75 gil. Antidote is extremely valuable, as there is no other cure for Poison other than using the Poisona spell, and it can be inflicted relatively often.
