Ryan:

Yes, Snape is a potions master.  However, the wolfsbane potion does
not prevent a werewolf from transforming.  It helps them retain
something of their human personality when they're transformed.
Lupin said something to the effect of the wolfsbane potion allowing
him to curl up in his office and sleep on the nights he transformed.

Second, JKR has all but said "Snape is not a vampire," so I don't
believe you line of speculation is feasible.  There may be some
vampires using potions to walk around during the day, but Snape's
not one of them.
