- Harry Potter: "...you don't need me- you could use Legilimency...or Veritaserum..."
- Albus Dumbledore: "Professor Slughorn is an extremely able wizard who will be expecting both. He is much more accomplished at Occlumency than poor Morfin Gaunt, and I would be astonished if he has not carried an antidote to Veritaserum with him ever since I coerced him into giving me this travesty of a recollection."

An antidote to Veritaserum exists to counteract the effects of the said truth serum. Professor Horace Slughorn was said to have kept one with him during the 1996–1997 school year, ever since Albus Dumbledore tried to persuade him to divulge a memory that Slughorn was too ashamed to give.
