Resident Evil 6 herbs: tablet recipes and partner recovery

Compare every basic green-herb recipe and learn the difference between treatment and a healing revival.

Edition covered

The four-campaign game first released in 2012, using the updated PC release for pictures and campaign availability. Launch-console unlock conditions and later platform-specific extras can differ.

Open the item inventory, combine compatible herbs and then store the result as tablets. The recipe table shows why saving a green herb for a combination can improve the supply.

Keep herbs and ready tablets distinct

An herb in the inventory is not yet a ready healing tablet. Prepare the case in cover so a hectic encounter does not turn into an inventory-management problem.

Help a partner before the next hit

Treatment can lift a partner out of the dying state without restoring vitality. A tablet-assisted revival also restores health. Clear the immediate danger before committing to the interaction.

Heal close together when possible
