Clean cadantine is a high level herb. It is used to make super defence potions at level 66 Herblore. Players can obtain it by cleaning a Grimy cadantine at level 65 Herblore, which gives 12.5 Herblore experience for cleaning. When used in conjunction with White berries it makes a super defence potion which gives 150 Herblore experience. Chaos druids are mainly killed to get cadantine drops. Aberrant spectres also drop cadantine herbs often. To create a potion, you need to add the cleaned herb to a vial of water to create a cadantine potion (unf), and then add the secondary ingredient.

According to the book Gielinor's flora - herbs, its name comes from the word Cadan, meaning "spirit of war" in a lost mage tongue.
