Clinical commentary 臨床

The ointment that follows Clear the Lung Drink. Chaulmoogra is the oil the tradition used for leprosy and other stubborn skin disease, and it is the one ingredient here with a real dermatological history. **Contains quicksilver and calomel, both severely toxic and absorbed through the skin. This must not be prepared.** — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
