Just as you can craft your own equipment and cook your own meals, you can also mix up your own medicine in Rune Factory 4. In fact, with the Chemistry Set you can be so self-reliant that you even make up special fertilizers for all of your farming needs.

It won't be far into the game that you start making your own supplies and improving your chemistry skill. Not only will this help you survive on your perilous journeys outside Selphia, but it can even be quite the handy money-making strategy!
Updated on June 14, 2023: We've updated this guide covering chemistry basics and all the chemistry recipes so you can be a medicine master in Rune Factory 4!
Chemistry Basics
Once you have acquired the appropriate license via an order, you can purchase Chemistry Labs from either Jones or Nancy when they are working at the clinic. This will cost you some gold, some lumber, and some material stone.
Once you have the Chemistry Set installed, you can start making restorative items, farming items, cooking ingredients, and eventually even stat boosters.
When using the Chemistry Set, you will use Rune Points (RP) whenever you attempt a recipe.
If the item's level is higher than your chemistry level, it will cost more RP to attempt to make it and there is a chance the attempt could outright fail — this will leave you with an Object X, a mysterious item that can be surprisingly useful.
You can learn recipes in-game by consuming Medicine Bread bought from Porcoline or acquired from festivals.
Alternatively, you could follow the recipes listed in this guide by selecting the "Do not use recipe" option, though it costs considerably more RP the first time you make something this way.
