--Meaning they aren't some mutilated version of a wolf but something fairly close.
9. Wolfsbane Potion was created after Remus' time in school and therefore unavailable to him. Even if he knew he would be unable to perfect one as it is a complicated potion that most qualified wizards are incapable of making."Effects: While this potion doesn't cure lycanthropy, it does prevent the extremely dangerous dementia which would otherwise accompany the transformation from human into werewolf."
--"Werewolves take it to alleviate their monthly symptoms (painful transforming and aggressive behaviour). Although it isn't a cure for Lycanthropy, it is a great advancement in potion-making and is one step further toward a cure. It must be taken for the full week before a full moon to have any effect, and sugar makes it useless. The potion was invented by a wizard named Damocles, who received the Order of Merlin and is the uncle of a current Hogwarts student, Marcus Belby."

10. As the full moon draws closer a werewolf will often feel ill.
11. If a human is bitten by a werewolf while they're still in human form they may develop lupine traits. EX: Bill Weasely never healed and developed a craving for really raw meat when bitten by Fenrir in his human shape.
12. The curse can only be passed to a human, meaning animals or humans in animal form (EX: Animagus) are safe from becoming werewolves themselves.
13. Werewolves usually don't breed, most likely a common fear that the child will be a werewolf as well.
14. The Ministry regulates werewolves, taking names for their registry which makes it difficult for them to get by in life.
