Clinical commentary 臨床

The Immun's version of the Deukhyobang formula for the round screen, with the weights adjusted drug by drug — one don eight for the bupleurum where the other had one and a half. The Bogam prints both, which is how it records a formula that two schools had each refined. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
