From *Effective Emergency Remedies*.

Processing

Grind each of the above herbs into a fine powder. On the Dragon Boat Festival, mix them evenly and form into pills using the “piled-flower” method with rice wine, making them the size of fine mung beans. Dry them in ash, store in a porcelain jar, and ensure no air escapes.

Benefits

For all life-threatening cases of shā syndrome.

Instructions for Use

Take 7 pills per dose; for severe cases, 9 or 12 pills. Hold them on the tongue until a numbing sensation is felt, then swallow with cool water or allow them to dissolve in saliva; for mild cases, only 3 pills are needed. It is advisable to keep a supply on hand for emergencies; ensure they remain dry to prevent mold or discoloration. If ground into a very fine powder, they can be used as a substitute for inhaled medications with even better results.

Note

Contraindicated for pregnant women.
