Translation

Treats the same as the above. Korean angelica, cnidium, and white peony, 1 don each; ophiopogon and pinellia, 7 fun each; ginseng, pearled ass-hide glue, moutan bark, evodia, and cinnamon bark, 5 fun each; licorice 3 fun. Cut the above and take as with the preceding formula. — Hoechun 回春 (Donguibogam · Po)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Essentially the Warm the Channels architecture given to a young patient — the Four Substances at the head, ophiopogon and glue holding the fluids, and evodia with cinnamon warming the vessels below. Paired with Mokdanpi-tang for the same presentation, it is the version for a cycle that has stopped from cold and depletion rather than from heat and wasting: the same closed door, opened by feeding rather than by forcing. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
