Processing

Grind the latter five ingredients into a powder. Combine them with Pinellia, white alum, and wine in a porcelain jar. Seal tightly for 4–5 days. Remove one pellet and test it; if it does not cause a scratchy throat, the medicine is ready. If not ready, soak for another 10 days. Test again; once it is ready, stop the process. Remove the pellets, sun-dry them until half-dry, then stir-fry them with wheat bran over low heat until they turn yellow—at which point they are ready for use.

Phlegm and fluid retention.

Instructions for Use
