Where to Find Recovery Meds
If you would rather just buy it, the seller is Caravan Shop at 6,180 Gold.
It also shows up as world loot — chests in the Grasslands, chests in the Forest and chests in the Mount Obsidian, and 18 more pools besides, usually 1–3 at a time. Higher-grade chests carry the better rolls, so the ones guarded by a camp are usually worth the detour.

Using Recovery Meds Well
The recipe rides on the Medieval Medicine Workbench, which unlocks in the Technology tree at level 12 — the first bench in the game that can brew anything stronger than Low Quality Recovery Meds. Every later medicine bench keeps the recipe, so the Electric Medicine Workbench at level 43, the Advanced Medicine Workbench at level 61 and an Ancient Workbench all still produce it.
The same bottle heals you or a Pal. Point it at a party Pal by selecting the Pal as the target when you consume it; a Pal assigned to base work takes it through the feed option on its menu instead. It has no effect on a Pal that has already collapsed — that needs Revival Potion.
Health comes back in ticks rather than in one lump, and a green cross sits on your status readout while the effect runs. That makes this the bottle to swallow before a fight rather than halfway through one, and it is the cheapest reliable answer to the chip damage you take when armour breaks in a cold or volcanic region — the regeneration covers the walk to shelter. Once High Quality Recovery Meds is available the base grade is still worth brewing, because its four ingredients are all things a mid-game base already stockpiles.
