Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑
下蟲積. 黑牽牛子頭末 一兩, 大黃 三錢, 使君子肉 二錢, 木香ㆍ檳榔ㆍ蕪荑ㆍ錫灰 各一錢二分. 右爲末, 先將皂角與苦練根皮濃煎二大椀, 熬成膏和丸梧子大. 將沈香末爲衣, 入以雷丸末爲衣. 每五十丸, 空心砂糖水下. 下蟲乃愈. 《回春》
Translation
Brings down worm accumulation. The first sifting of black morning-glory seed 1 nyang; rhubarb 3 don; quisqualis kernels 2 don; costus, areca, elm-fruit paste and tin ash 1 don 2 pun each. Powder them; first decoct gleditsia and chinaberry root bark thick into two large bowls, boil down to a paste and bind into pills the size of a firmiana seed. Coat them with powdered aloeswood, then coat again with powdered omphalia. Take fifty on an empty stomach with sugar water; when the worms come down it is healed. — Manbyeong Hoechun 回春 (Donguibogam · Chung)
