Just one Tonic of every sort might be lively at a time, with length depending on the rarity of every Tonic.

The right way to unlock Tonics
At first look, the method of unlocking further Tonics in Future 2 generally is a little obtuse. In-game, Eliksni Scribe Eido encourages Guardians to maintain brewing Tonics to find new recipes, however there’s a bit extra to the method than that.
From our personal testing, the method of discovering new Tonics requires that you simply brew a number of (any impact, it doesn’t appear to matter) Tonics of a particular rarity, upon which the recipe for a higher-rarity Tonic might be revealed.
For instance, repeatedly brewing Unusual-rarity Risky or Enriching Tonics will ultimately reveal the recipe for a Uncommon Tonic. Repeating this course of with the latter will yield the recipe for a Legendary Tonic, and so forth. As of writing, no Unique Tonics can be found in-game, although Bungie has already revealed their existence in livestreams. These will doubtless turn out to be obtainable in both Act 2 or Act 3 of Revenant.
