Scorpius Malfoy: "Okay. What's the counter-ingredient? What do we need to change?"
Albus Potter: "Everything."

A counter-ingredient was a magical substance that, when added to a potion, counteracted the effect of an incorrectly added ingredient.[1]

History[]

When Albus Potter improperly added salamander blood to a potion he was making in a second-year Potions lesson during the 2018–2019 school year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, his partner Scorpius Malfoy asked him what the appropriate counter-ingredient was.[1]
