Tangerine peel, washed clean, 1 nyang, decocted in newly drawn water and taken. — Donguibogam · Gi
Clinical commentary 臨床
One ingredient for one cause. The section it belongs to, 氣逸則滯, says that qi which is not used stagnates — the disease of the idle — and the remedy is the mildest qi-mover in the materia medica, taken alone.
The Medicine Use chapter's 5.25 argued for formulas this small, and this is one of the few in the book that takes it literally. — Eui Young (Justin) Chung, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.
