Translation

Treats red turbid urine where thought and worry have injured the heart. Aged lotus flesh, white poria, dragon bone, asparagus, ophiopogon, arborvitae seed, angelica, jujube kernel, fluorite, polygala, frankincense and dragon tooth 1 nyang each. Powder them, make honey pills the size of a firmiana seed coated with cinnabar, and take seventy on an empty stomach with warm wine or jujube decoction. — Uihak Immun 入門 (Donguibogam · Sobyeon)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Almost the whole Spirit chapter in one pill — dragon bone and dragon tooth, fluorite, arborvitae and jujube kernels — for turbidity the Immun puts down to worry rather than damp. The Small Intestine chapter's 9.6 pairing of heart and bladder is the reasoning. **Coated with cinnabar, which is toxic.** — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
