Processing
Use 3–4 jin of charcoal to build a fire on level ground until the ground is red-hot. Spread the area 7 cun in diameter around the fire and place the processed Aconite in the center. Turn it frequently so that the medicinal coating on all sides becomes evenly charred and reddish-brown. Place it in a wooden mortar and pound for half a day until both the flour and the Aconite are finely ground. Add the ground Wood Fragrance and aged tangerine peel, then gradually drip in water while pounding to mix evenly. Form into pills the size of a Paulownia seed.
Benefits
For cold, heat, deficiency, or stagnation of the spleen and stomach, and pain caused by accumulated qi.
Instructions for Use
Take 5 pills each time, on an empty stomach or before the evening meal, with lightly gingered tea warmed to body temperature. With prolonged use, pain, acid regurgitation, and similar symptoms will cease entirely.
