加味靑州白元子

An augmentation of 靑州白元子, whose own composition the Bogam gives in the Phlegm chapter; that chapter is not yet transcribed on this site, so the name is left unlinked there. 白薑 is dried ginger, distinguished from 乾薑 in some materia medica by the peeling but treated as the same drug here. 並生 — all raw — applies to every drug in the formula.

Clinical commentary 臨床

The base pellets with the internal-wind set grafted on: gastrodia, scorpion and silkworm, which is the combination that appears whenever the tradition wants to still a tremor or a twitch rather than merely move phlegm. Everything is raw, bound only with ginger juice and flour paste, and the ginger decoction vehicle carries the same corrective. Fifty to seventy pills at a dose of raw arisaema, raw pinellia and raw aconite is a large exposure, and the formula is listed here as a record rather than a prescription. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
