| |
| '''Medical Herbs''' once again cure an ally from all status aliments but [[Ghost (status)|death]]. The [[Wisp|Lumina]] spell [[Twinkle Rain]] has the same effect. The plant can be bought for 10 lucre in stores for the 2D version and 20 lucre in the 3D one.
| |
| | |
| In the 2D version, medical herbs can be grown from the [[Magic Pot]] by planting an [[Item Seed]]. In the 3D version, they can also sprout from the magic pot should the player use either an item seed, a [[Silver Item Seed|silver]], [[Gold Item Seed|gold]] or [[Rainbow Item Seed|rainbow item seed]]. They can also be found by collecting [[Sparkle|sparkles]] or by breaking [[Urns|red urns]].

| ==Behind the scenes==
| |
| The original Antidote is based on the recurring item in ''Final Fantasy''. As well, concept drawings render it as a small bottle filled with the substance. Antidotes were redrawn for ''Adventures of Mana''; they now resemble the modern Medical Herb. The rationale behind this particular change is not known.
