Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑

治同上. 川芎ㆍ細辛ㆍ藜蘆ㆍ白芷ㆍ防風ㆍ薄荷ㆍ皂角. 右等分爲末, 用如上法. 《丹心》

Translation

Treats the same as the above. Chuanxiong, asarum, veratrum, angelica dahurica, saposhnikovia, mint and gleditsia pod. Powder in equal parts; use by the method above. — Danggye Simbeop 丹心 (Donguibogam · Pung)

Clinical commentary 臨床

The same intervention as Tongjeong-san with the gypsum dropped and gleditsia pod added — a purely irritant version, no cooling component at all. Gleditsia saponins and asarum are the sternutatories here and veratrum the forcing agent. In practice these two powders were kept together in the emergency box and whichever was to hand was used. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
