Tangerine Peel Unripe Bitter Orange and Atractylodes Pill
Gyulpijichul-hwan
한글 귤피지출환 · Pinyin Ju Pi Zhi Zhu Wan
Pill formula, bulk amounts: made and taken as Jichul-hwan — powdered, bound with rice baked wrapped in a lotus leaf, 50–70 to 100 pills with boiled water. The great method of this medicine lies in what it prizes: taken so that the person's stomach Qi grows thicker, then even fierce eating, much eating, heavy eating no longer inflicts damage.

Donguibogam 東醫寶鑑
治飮食不消, 心下痞悶. 枳朮丸本方, 加橘皮 一兩, 製法服法同上. 用藥大法所貴, 服之强人胃氣令益厚, 雖猛食多食重食, 而不復致傷也. 《東垣》 ○枳朮丸, 乃易老張先生之所制. 用白朮二兩以補脾, 枳實一兩以消痞, 至東垣, 加陳皮一兩以和胃. 一補一瀉, 簡而又當, 眞得立方之旨也. 《丹心》
Translation
Treats food and drink undispersed with glomus oppression below the heart: the base Jichul-hwan with tangerine peel 1 nyang added, made and taken as above. What the great method of using this medicine prizes: taking it strengthens the person's stomach Qi and makes it ever thicker, so that even fierce eating, much eating, and heavy eating no longer inflict damage (Dongwon 東垣). — Jichul-hwan was framed by Master Zhang Yilao: white atractylodes 2 nyang to supplement the spleen, unripe bitter orange 1 nyang to disperse glomus; with Dongyuan, tangerine peel 1 nyang was added to harmonize the stomach. One supplementing and one draining — simple and exactly apt: this truly grasps the intent of establishing a formula. — Dansim 丹心 (Donguibogam · Naesang)
