Instructions for Use

Take one fangcun bi per dose, washed down with water; it is best to drink plenty of water.

Push it in as deep as the wound allows until it reaches the bottom; stop once fresh blood begins to flow. If poison enters the body after taking the medicine, take one fangcun bi of the formula with water; the poison will be neutralized, the pain will subside, and the patient will recover.
