Translation

Treats red and white turbidity and white lewdness alike. Phellodendron (half raw and half fried) and clam shell powder 3 nyang each; talc 2 nyang; ailanthus root bark 1 nyang; indigo and dried ginger (fried brown) 5 don each. Powder them, bind with fried leaven boiled to a paste into pills the size of a firmiana seed, and take seventy or a hundred on an empty stomach with warm wine. Phellodendron downbears yin fire and removes damp heat; clam shell powder, being salty, supplements the kidney; talc frees the orifices; ailanthus root bark greatly dries damp heat; indigo resolves depression and downbears fire; dried ginger gathers the lung qi and makes it descend and engenders yin blood — salt-processed and fried slightly black for use. — Dansim 丹心 (Donguibogam · Sobyeon)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Jeobaek-hwan's six medicinals at larger doses, with Danxi's own gloss on each appended. The one that repays reading is the dried ginger: a warm medicinal in a cooling formula, fried black so that it holds the lung's qi down rather than warming. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
