Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑

治咽喉閉塞腫痛, 幷單雙蛾神效. 膽礬盛於靑魚膽內, 陰乾爲末, 吹入喉中立效. 無靑魚則鱓魚膽代之, 臘月者甚佳. 《活人》

Translation

Treats the throat blocked, swollen and painful, and single or double moth — divinely effective. Put bluestone inside a black carp's gallbladder, dry it in the shade and powder it, and blow into the throat; it answers at once. If there is no black carp, an eel's gall will serve, and one from the twelfth month is best. — Hwarin 活人 (Donguibogam · Inhu)

Clinical commentary 臨床

**Contains bluestone (copper sulfate), which is toxic. For external use only.** — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
