Translation

Treats turbid urine. Licorice (mix-fried) 3 nyang; polyporus 2 nyang 5 don; lotus stamen and coptis 2 nyang each; white poria, amomum, alpinia, pinellia (ginger-processed) and phellodendron (stir-fried) 1 nyang each. Powder them, bind with steamed bread soaked in hot water into pills the size of a firmiana seed, and take fifty to seventy on an empty stomach with warm wine. — Uihak Jeongjeon 正傳 (Donguibogam · Sobyeon)

Clinical commentary 臨床

Licorice at three nyang is the largest dose of it in the chapter, and it is the chief: the Jeongjeon treats turbidity by supplementing the centre and letting the cooling and aromatic medicinals work around it. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
