Scutellaria, Atractylodes and Ailanthus Bark Pill

Geumchuljeopi-hwan

한글 금출저피환 · Pinyin Qin Zhu Chu Pi Wan

芩朮樗皮丸

Pill formula, bulk amounts: powdered and bound with a wine paste into pills the size of parasol-tree seeds; 50 pills with plain boiled water. The source states the rule plainly: discharge in a pregnant woman is damp heat, without exception. Note on modern practice: any discharge in pregnancy, particularly with odor, itching, or fluid loss, requires prompt obstetric evaluation.

Clinical commentary 臨床

The pairing that governs it is the classical fetus-quieting couple — scutellaria and white atractylodes, the same two that head the bleeding formula earlier in the Women's chapter. Here they lead a damp-heat clearing pill, on the source's flat rule that discharge in pregnancy is *专* damp heat: nothing warming, nothing moving, and cornus added to hold what the clearing might loosen. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
