Translation

Treats wine and food damage; harmonizes the stomach and disperses phlegm. Tangerine peel 3 don; magnolia bark, atractylodes, and licorice, 0.7 don each. Cut the above, make one packet, add 3 slices of ginger, decoct in water and take. — Adding kudzu root 2 don with red poria, amomum, and medicated leaven 1 don each is finer still. — Hwalinsim 活人心 (Donguibogam · Naesang)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Pyeongwi-san inverted — Jinpi promoted to a quadruple dose to move what wine has stalled. The classical hangover prescription, and the ancestor of half the morning-after remedies sold in Korean convenience stores today. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
