I think a lot of people already house rule that drinking potions is a bonus action. As far as making them more potent, I think that kind of misses the point. They’re not supposed to be a replacement for a healer. They’re great for making sure you don’t die, or for getting an unconscious character back up. Fancy healing potions are great, but the cost is prohibitive for a reason.
