Response
By "experimental potion" I have taken this to mean "COVID-19 vaccines". All of the information you have requested is available from Pharmacy - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) and is broken down by each vaccine that has been approved. Under section 25(1) of FOISA, we do not have to give you information which is already reasonably accessible to you. For ease of access, I will list the ingredients for each vaccine approved in the UK below. For each of these, this is in addition to the active medical component, which differs from vaccine to vaccine, and is listed under the "Methods of action" section of the documentation under pharmaceutical properties.
