Source
*Qian Jin* (Vol. 11).
Processing
Grind the ingredients into a fine powder. Place 3 sheng of three-year-old vinegar in a copper vessel and secure it with a bamboo skewer. Divide 1 sheng into one “ke”; thus, 3 sheng is divided into three “ke.” Place the vessel over a fire. First add the rhubarb, stirring constantly without stopping until it simmers gently for one “ke.” Then add the remaining ingredients and simmer for another “ke.” With the remaining “ke,” reduce over very low heat until the mixture is thick enough to form pills the size of a chicken egg’s yolk.
Benefits
Treats twelve types of masses and masses in the abdomen, as well as leukorrhea in women and infertility.
Instructions for Use
For patients requiring purgation, administer 2 pills. If the patient cannot tolerate large pills, they may be divided into smaller ones, but do not exceed 4 pills. The pills should be large rather than small; it is best not to divide them if possible.Those who are emaciated may eat a small amount; those who are robust need not eat. Take the medicine five times over a period of 20 days; the purgative effect will occur half a day after ingestion. If taken by a woman, the discharge may resemble chicken liver, or be bright red or black like rice water, ranging from 1 sheng to 3 sheng. After the purgation, guard against wind and cold; consume one cup of congee, followed by nourishing soups and stews, as per the regimen for postpartum women; conception will occur within six months.
Note
Avoid raw fish, pork, and pungent vegetables.
